Azure front door probe ips for whitelisting in WebApp












1















We are designing a multi-location deployment within Azure that requires users to be sent to their closest origin. At the moment we are using a traffic manager however that is causing us some issues with another layer in the client's infrastructure.



Another option we are investigating is Front Door however that introduces a new challenge - how can we prevent our origins from being publicly available?



For traffic manager, Microsoft publish a list of probe ip's which we can whitelist within our webapps: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/traffic-manager/traffic-manager-faqs#what-are-the-ip-addresses-from-which-the-health-checks-originate



Does front-door offer a similar thing? The ideal outcome would be a set of ip address (ala https://azuretrafficmanagerdata.blob.core.windows.net/probes/azure/probe-ip-ranges.json) which we could import into our webapps firewalls.

          Azure Front Door Service provides dynamic website acceleration (DSA) including global HTTP load balancing. Front Door Service is mixed of ADC and CDN networking. When do a health probe, the Front Door environments will send a probe, this DOC states that there are about 90 Front Door environments or POPs globally. It seems that the document could not describe which specific probe IP address are in the Front Door environments. You could look at this issue on Github.



          Currently, the Front Door service is the public preview, it may take some time for release. Also, It's not recommended to use it in the production environment.

          • I think we might be jumping the gun a bit if we aim for that in our prod setup. It solves a few of the issues we have but is maybe a bit too soon to consider. One to keep an eye on!
