Microsoft[Announcement] Connectivity issues from synchronized users to VMs joined to AAD DS
Christian_Montoya : A fix has been rolled out to production for this issue.
MicrosoftArthurOpenhost : I wouldn't say that no one is using Azure AD DS or that it's not a viable solution. Primarily, understanding this failing scenario is an intersection of where customers are today and how they are piloting Windows Virtual Desktop with just cloud users (before trying to extend this with a full site-to-site on-prem infrastructure).
Between using Azure AD DS or extending existing domain structure to Azure, it depends on your scenarios you're targeting. You have much more flexibility by extending, since you can use Federation, Passthrough Authentication, or password hash (whereas AAD DS only works with password hash). Not sure if you've already seen this comparison article.
Christian_MontoyaThat makes sense, thank you.
Is "Azure AD join" on the roadmap for WVD ? Or will AAD DS continue to be the lightest deployment for our SMB customers ?

ArthurOpenhost : Azure AD Join is in our backlog. We've heard overwhelming interest for this, and we want to align with Azure AD Join/Intune as a means of deploying and managing Windows. We don't have any specific dates on this, but we definitely want to supporting this as a scenario down the road.

Is there a way to identify the public IP range used by azure virtual desktops to communicate with external resources such as O365
Services . this is required to apply some azure access control policy
Thanks
- Just checking if there's any ETA on the fix for the initial problem in this thread. Thanks.

ArthurOpenhost : Azure AD Join is definitely a scenario we want to support and we're in the initial investigation stages, as it's a larger change from how VDI/RDS has worked in the past. Unfortunately, this feature is not something that will make it into our initial GA. We will continue to update these forums and our Docs site as we have more information on this scenario, and other new ones.
