How to keep using subdomain myendpointname.azureedge.net when migrating from Azure CDN from Edgio to Azure Front Door Standard?

Question

When creating a new end point in Azure Front Door Standard, the endpoint hostname is in the format of endpointname-hash.z01.azurefd.net.

My current endpoint name in Azure CDN from Edgio is endpointname.azureedge.net.

What steps are necessary to continue using my previous subdomain myendpointname.azureedge.net when migrating from Azure CDN from Edgio to Azure Front Door Standard?

Hi @Setyo Nugroho,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

• We understand your interest in retaining the subdomain myendpointname.azureedge.net while transitioning from Azure CDN to Azure Front Door Standard.
• Unfortunately, this is not feasible since Azure Front Door automatically assigns a subdomain under azurefd.net as the default frontend host.
• This subdomain is included by default in the URL used to deliver content from Front Door to your backend.
• However, Azure Front Door offers the flexibility to use a custom domain for your endpoint, allowing you to use your own URL instead of the default azurefd.net domain.
• If your application code currently references an Azure CDN endpoint, we recommend updating it to use a custom domain name.
