Hello @chris fitzgerald ,

I understand that you would like to know how to assign a static IP on your Azure VM.

Are you referring to Public IP or Private IP?

In case you would like to assign a static public IP to your Azure VM, then you can refer the below docs:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/associate-public-ip-address-vm?tabs=azure-portal

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/virtual-network-network-interface-addresses?tabs=nic-address-portal

Make sure you've a static Public IP available: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/create-public-ip-portal?tabs=option-1-create-public-ip-standard#sign-in-to-azure

In case you would like to assign a static private IP to your Azure VM, then you can refer the below doc:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/virtual-networks-static-private-ip-arm-pportal#change-private-ip-address-to-static
