This template shows how to create an Azure Traffic Manager profile to load-balance across 3 virtual machines distributed across Availability Zones. Each endpoint has an equal weight but different weights can be specified to distribute load non-uniformly.

The accompanying PowerShell script shows how to create a resource group from the template and read back the Traffic Manager profile details. Before running the script, edit azuredeploy.parameters.json and replace the values marked with '#####'.
