When deploying multiple AMA agents, do the IP addresses need to be static for each agent, or can they be dynamic/shared?

    Hi Kyle,

    As the AMA agent is using outbound connections to the Azure Monitor endpoints, the outbound IP must not be static.

    Further, here is a list of endpoints which must be reachable from the VM where the agent is installed:

    Hope this answers your question.

    cheers
