Hello,

Could you please help me with below questions on VMSS (Virtual Machine Scale Set)?

  1. Is hybrid license allowed with VMSS (Virtual Machine Scale Set)?
  2. Why there is no NIC attached to VMs created via Scale Set?
  3. How is traffic distributed among VMs created via Scale Set if those VMs don't have NIC?
  4. If a Azure VM doesn't have NIC, does it mean we can not assign any IP Address (read Private IP) to it?

Appreciate your insightful response, thank you !!

    Hi,

    Is hybrid license allowed with VMSS (Virtual Machine Scale Set)? Yes see here and here.

    Why there is no NIC attached to VMs created via Scale Set? There is. See here.

    How is traffic distributed among VMs created via Scale Set if those VMs don't have NIC? See here. Application Gateway is also possible.

    If a Azure VM doesn't have NIC, does it mean we can not assign any IP Address (read Private IP) to it? Assigning specific private IP address to a VM in a scale set it is not possible.

    For managing every setting for each VM see New orchestration mode for Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets now in public preview and Preview: Orchestration modes for virtual machine scale sets in Azure
