Adding Instance IP address on Linux VM

Hi,

 

I would like to add an instance IP address on an existing Virtual Machine (classic). However, I the option is disabled. Would like to seek advice.

    Hi Kasun, The service is running on a single VM. It's current has a NIC with dynamic public IP and I'm intending to add a instance IP (separate public IP) to split the non-production traffic from the main HTTP traffic. The issue I see here is, the current VM does not allow me to add the instance IP as the option is disabled. On the other hand, I do have another VM instance that do not have such restriction. That make this rather weird since both are equally single linux VM with only exception that it's in different sizes. Thanks

      Ok. How I can see why Azure doesn't allow you to change the IP configuration.

       

      Does this Classic VM deployed to a VNET ? 

      What I can assume is you create this from Old Portal ?

      What I can see from your Screen capture is its not deploy to a VNET. If you doesn't deploy classic VM to VNET you can't modify the network configuration 

  • can you provide more details.

     

    Is this cloud service has more than one VM ?

    What kind of a workload is this?
