You can configure MSP in inline and advanced configuration using CLI. MSP supports CLI version >= 2.74.0
Note
Before using CLI to configure MSP, ensure that you're registered with Azure Feature Exposure Control (AFEC) flag. If not, follow instructions here.
Deploy a Virtual Machine (VM) with MSP
For a new VM, use the command az vm create. You must specify enable-proxy-agent, wire-server-mode (Audit, Enforce, Disabled), and imds-mode (Audit, Enforce, Disabled)
Example of inline configuration
az vm create -g <Resource Group Name> --image Win2022DataCenter --enable-proxy-agent --wire-server-mode Audit --imds-mode Enforce --size Standard_DS1_v2 --name <VMName>
Example of advanced configuration
The main difference between inline and advanced configuration is that you provide a link to the SIG artifact that contains the allowlist for a more granular control over which applications or services can communicate with which endpoints. Instead of using wire-server-mode, use wire-server-profile-id. Similarly, instead of using imds-mode, use imds-profile-id.
az vm create -g <Resource Group Name> --image Win2022DataCenter --enable-proxy-agent --wire-server-profile-id <SIG artifact link> --imds-profile-id Enforce --size Standard_DS1_v2 --name <VMName>

Note
Portal currently only supports inline configuration.
Enable MSP on an existing VM with CLI
For an existing VM, use the command az vm update. You must specify enable-proxy-agent, wire-server-mode (Audit, Enforce, Disabled), and imds-mode (Audit, Enforce, Disabled)
Example of inline configuration
az vm update -g <Resource Group Name> --image Win2022DataCenter --enable-proxy-agent --wire-server-mode Audit --imds-mode Enforce --size Standard_DS1_v2 --name <VMName>
Example of advanced configuration
The main difference between inline and advanced configuration is that you'll provide a link to the SIG artifact that contains the allowlist for a more granular control over which applications/services can communicate with which endpoints. Instead of using wire-server-mode, use wire-server-profile-id. Similarly, instead of using imds-mode, use imds-profile-id.
az vm update -g <Resource Group Name> --image Win2022DataCenter --enable-proxy-agent --wire-server-profile-id <SIG artifact link> --imds-profile-id Enforce --size Standard_DS1_v2 --name <VMName>
