Guest User Access to Bastion
Hello all I am looking to use one or more Azure VMs as a jump box for Azure AD external identities, with access through Bastion. I was given confidence in taking this path when I saw on the http...
- I think what is supported is AuthN to Azure portal with access to Bastion with guest account and then to use native/local account to login to system. Then access can be audited from diag and audit logs of Bastion what accounts were used to portal and system access. Any one who was able to login with guest account to system directly?

YSDimov_Live thank you. After some more experimentation, I've come to same conclusion - it's quite possible to authenticate to Azure Portal/Bastion using a guest account, but you then have to use a local account, AD/AADDS or AAD full member account to authenticate against the OS of the VM.
Hopefully this is something Microsoft will change in the future, as there are similar limitations in Azure Virtual Desktops and Windows 365.
