Hi all,
I have a website running on specific port(say for example -5090 port). If i use a dns name i can map the IP address. This is one option. But i need to add cname records. In this case i cannot use dns name and need to use dns zone. Hope I'm right. Even in the created dns zone, when I map an A record to an IP address, I'm unable to map the IP and get the website. Seems like only dns name for virtual machine is able to map ip address. Am I missing something in the configuration? Created a dns zone and created an A record which maps to the IP address of the Linux VM where the website is running on 5090 port. This is still not able to map the IP address and get the website. Please check and support on this.

Thank you for reaching out.
Can you please let me know from where you are trying to resolve the IP address is it over the internet or within your private network?
If you are trying resolve the public IP over the internet, have you set-up a custom domain in this case?
It is public IP over internet. I have setup a custom domain in dns zone but I'm unable to link it with the IP
Hello @Ashitha S
Please check the following details:
1. Was the A record been created for the Public IP address of the VM?
2. If so then we assume you have the DNS zone in azure and created a A record to map with the Public IP of the VM.
3. If so, then now we should inspect if the VM pointing to “Azure provided DNS”.
4. To check the same, please look in these two places of the VM:
NIC of the VM:
ON the Vnet:
Just following up here to see if you were able take a look at Priya's comment above. Thank you!
