I want to bind my custom domain to my Azure VM.
The DNS name of my networking is, for example, xxx.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com (here I use xxx to replace my real DNS name label)
I have followed the answer from this link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62185398
Azure VM has a default FQDN that you only could change the DNS label. If you want to add your own custom domain for that Azure VM, you could add a CNAME type DNS record like somename.my.domain.com CNAME myvmname.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com or A type record like somename.my.domain.com A your Azure VM public IP address in your DNS domain my.domain.com provider.
But when I click my custom domain, it directs me to the following weblink. This is the same link when I click my public IP from AZURE. How can I make my custom domain directs to my xxx.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com?
Thanks for your help.
To allow the website on your Azure VM to be accessed with a custom domain, you can add A or CNAME records in your DNS provider to map the public IP address or FQDN of Azure VM.
For example, you want to access www.contoso.com, you can add CNAME record www in the contoso.com zone.
www CNAME xxx.westus2.cloudapp.azure.com
It usually takes a few hours to wait for DNS propagation worldwide. You can verify it via this website https://www.whatsmydns.net/.
Let me know if you have any concerns.

I create a CNAME record in DNS ZONE (e.g: site1.example.com). And then, afdverify.site1.example.com and site1.example.com will be created.
I just want to create site1.example.com only.
• #Kyakya, from your query and the screenshot, I can understand that you are trying to create a CNAME record for the ‘site1.example.com’ URL. But when creating a CNAME DNS record in a DNS zone, you will have to mention its alias FQDN URL, i.e., that original URL which you are trying to mask or associate with by creating this CNAME record. Thus, I can understand from the screenshot that you are trying to create a CNANE record for the Azure front door URL in DNS zone in Azure.
As a result, when you create a CNAME record with a custom domain name for an already hosted URL, you need to ensure that the original hosted URL is reachable and available as the CNAME record created will only redirect the DNS requests to the original hosted URL only.
• Since, in your case, you don’t want to create a subdomain regarding ‘site1.example.com’ in your DNS zone, i.e., ‘afdverify.site1.example.com’ so in that scenario, you will have to create an ‘A’ host record for the ‘site1.example.com’ in your public DNS server where your basic custom domain ‘example.com’ is registered. Once done, then create a CNAME record for the inbuilt Azure generated FQDN of that resource in your public DNS zone in that DNS server with ‘site1.example.com’ that you want.
And if you don’t want that too, then you will have to verify your custom domain in Azure, and then create resources in Azure based on the records created in DNS zone provisioned.
i created VM behide Azure Load Balancer. i want to use custom domain to Load Balance Public IP. for example i want to access url like 'xx.mvg.com' instead Load Balance Public IP from internet. how i can do it?
i tried to did followed reference link 'https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-custom-domain' but still not working.
Please recommend how to register my domain name i wish, i want map my domain name to my application running on VM behide Azure Load Balancer.
and Azure have service about internet domain registrar?
about your last question - no, Azure have only Azure DNS, which is not a domain registrar, but a DNS as a service.
Easiest way to achieve what you want - assign a dns name to a public ip (called dns label here) and create a CNAME record in your DNS for that DNS name. or just straight up create a A record in your DNS and point it to your public ip.
I did a research a few days about this. But still do not find any solution yet.
I have vm that host a website. The IP address for this website able to access from outside. But now i want to have custom domain for this vm.
Anyone know where I should refer to? Please share any link etc.
just create a A DNS record with your domain name registar, or use Azure DNS (you would need to delegate your domain to Azure DNS), or use Azure built-in DNS for your VM. If you dont have a domain - you need to buy it first.

After you deployed an Azure VM, you also could configure an FQDN for this VM so that you can access the VM via Azure Provided DNS resolution which is mapped to the public IP address of Azure VM. Read how to create a FQDN. If so, you could directly access the VM via this FQDN.
Otherwise, you need to purchase a domain then use a CNAME to redirect your custom domain like www.example.com to this FQDN or use a A record mapping to the public IP address in your domain provider.
I am trying to figure out how to link my *.cloudapp.azure.com VM's DNS info to a GoDaddy subdomain off my company's site. I am not able to wrap my head around the directions on Azure.
The second part is we have a purchased wildcard SSL cert for our main domain on GoDaddy that we need to install. I can see you can purchase certs from Azure, however we have our own.
Thanks for any assistance anyone can provide in this matter.
You can use CNames to link Azure domains to your existing domain. Just créate a CName that point to your Azure DNS Name. Example:
you need vm.company.com to point to your vm called myvm in Azure.
créate CNAME vm that point to myvm.location.cloudapp.azure.com
As for the cert, copy it to the vm and import like you normally would.
A DNS zone is used to host the DNS records for a particular domain. To start hosting your domain in Azure DNS, you need to create a DNS zone for that domain name. Each DNS record for your domain is then created inside this DNS zone. Finally, to publish your DNS zone to the Internet, you need to configure the name servers for the domain.
Each of these steps is described in the following steps:
Step1: First create the Azure Virtual Machines.
Step2: To get DNS addresses, you need create DNS zones with your domain name.
Go to Azure Portal => New => search DNS zones => Create DNS zones
Name= azurewala.com, Subscription, Resource Group, and Location
Step3: Once Azure DNS zones created you can see four Name Servers.
Step4: Go to GoDaddy control panel and click on the DNS.
Step5: Change the Nameservers by choose your new nameserver type as: Custom
Note: Copy and paste the Name Servers from Azure DNS to GoDaddy
And make sure you have to remove the extra dot before you save.
Step6: Open Created DNS Zones and add a record set
Name: www
Type: A
TTL: 1 Hours
IP ADDRESS: 52.176.102.178
Note: Give IP Address of the VM.

Is there a way to point an Azure NIC to the records one created in an Azure DNS zone?
At present Azure DNS doesn't support private DNS zones, i.e. those only available to your vnet. Also, the DNS servers specified in the "Add DNS server" box needs to be a recursive resolver, Azure DNS is an Authoritative DNS service, i.e. it will only serve answers for the zones it hosts.
We can't add Azure DNS zone to NIC custom DNS. The custom DNS required IP address, we can add the DNS server IP address to it.
For example, we can add 8.8.8.8 to it, also we can add local DNS server IP address to it(need VPN). Or create a Azure windows VM and install DNS role on it, and add this VM ip address to it.
If you want to use Azure DNS zone to manage your records, we can map your own domain name to DNS zone, and add name servers to your domain name(add this by domain name registrar manage webpage).
The following image shows an example DNS query about Azure DNS zone:
If you want to add record to DNS zone, and you want to map your 3rd party domain name map to Azure DNS zone, we can follow those steps in that answer.
Note:
Keep in mind Azure DNS is not the domain registrar, we should buy domain name from domain registrar(like godaddy, register.com).
Update:
If you just want to use domain name in your virtual network, there is no need to buy a domain, we can use AAD DS in our virtual network. Or we can deploy a VM and install DC on it, work as on-prem.
By the way, in the same virtual network, we can ping VM's name by default.
