How to Make Azure API Management Inbound Public IP Static (No More IP Surprises!)

Recently one of my customer had to go through painful journey of API Management inbound public IP change. This public IP was whitelisted to all client apps, external WAF services, xternal partner application and so on. This overall change of whitelisting of public IP was required at 350+ locations. While the best way is to use domain whitelisting not all firewalls or devices support domain based whitelisting. Or some org still work on public ip whitelisting only. In this scenarios, keeping api management public IP static becomes extremely important. 

I am going to show you the way of azure api management provisioning by which you can always get the static public IP address for inbound traffic. 

In this video I will talk about – 

- Which network option should be used for API Management provisioning

- How you can attach public IP of your choice to Azure api management.

Upgrading Azure Basic Public IP address to Standard sku - part 2

 In this video I will try to answer few important and crucial queries I received on LinkedIn, youTube video comments and so on.

1. Can I upgrade the ip addresses attached to a VM NIC one by one?
2. Can I create new NIC, disassociate all existing basic public ips from old nic, perform the upgrade to standard and then attach to new NIC?
3. Can I disassociate all existing basic public ips from current nic, perform the upgrade to standard and then attach to same existing NIC?
4. What if I have my public IP basic, static and not attached to anything, can I upgrade?
5. Does this upgrade involve downtime? If yes, how much? Or how can I calculate?
6. Is there a way to rollback upgrade in case of failure?
7. Whom I should involve during the activity?
