'Intune network service endpoints'
What? I've never encountered this term. I know what InTune is, what networks are, what endpoints are - yet I have no idea what this means. What platforms does this affect? We use intune for iPhones, currently exclusively. Mostly because no one has the time to pivot their entire career to InTune, as seems to be required.
'Azure Front Door IP addresses ' - another thing I've never heard of nor encountered nor really want to spend time figuring out.
'We know many customers don’t always check their service change messages in the Microsoft 365 admin center' - that's because every message Microsoft releases is traumatizing and discouraging, and prioritizes investor friendliness and 'new content' over user friendliness.
Our stack for InTune is Supervised ABM/ADE Enrolled iPhones and Untangle or Fortigate for Firewalls. Can anyone advise on what KB articles I need to read (then update, of course)? Or just tell me wtf a 'intune network service endpoint' is, and I can hopefully make sense of it for staff? :exhausted:

MicrosoftHi underQualifried. I'm sorry you are feeling frustration here. Hopefully I can help a little with that.
Azure Front Door is an Azure service that provides fast, reliable, and secure access to other services hosted in Azure. In the context of this article, this service is Intune. You don't have to explicitly know anything about AFD and this change is transparent to the service and devices managed by it for many/most organizations.
The most significant change is that this does alter the network destination (aka endpoint) for managed devices to communicate with the Intune service. Like all things on the Internet, this destination, is defined by an IP address (or addresses) and is abstracted by DNS and domain names. Thus, you will only be impacted if instead of using the domain names you directly reference IP addresses to allow or block Internet traffic since that's what is ultimately changing here to communicate with the service.
This change is completely transparent to you and your managed devices if either of the following is true:
- You don't block traffic to or from the Internet at all.
- You block or allow traffic to or from the Internet using domains names (aka FQDNs).
