Create VM in Azure with powershell with no public IP - azure

Question

I'm creating VM on Azure from an Image using powershell.
This is the script I'm using .
$UserName = "username"
$Password = ConvertTo-SecureString "password#123" -AsPlainText -Force
$psCred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($UserName, $Password)
New-AzureRmVm `
-ResourceGroupName "RSG" `
-Name "VMName" `
-ImageName "ImageName" `
-Location "West US" `
-VirtualNetworkName "VNName" `
-SubnetName "default" `
-Credential $psCred
-PublicIpAddressName "None" `
-OpenPorts 3389
But, when I got into the Azure portal and see, some Public Ip is getting assigned by default. I have also tried without giving PublicIpAddressName property assuming , it wont assign any IP, but still it is assigning.
I want the Public IP to be none.Can anyone help me achieve this.Thanks!

Answer 1

Currently this an issue which is still in Open state on official azure-powershell github. You can refer it here . Incase if you still want to bypass this you can try using New-AzureReservedIP or after the deployment command try to remove the public ip by yourself Remove-AzureRmPublicIpAddress.
Note : I have'nt tested it yet. Just an idea.
Refer : Docs

Answer 2

To set no public ip address you have can just define it as "" , in powershell you will need to quote that again so it will be """" .

Answer 3

If you are using PowerShell, then you will need to escape all empty parameters by changing "" to '""' to properly pass an empty string into the command. Without this, PowerShell will not pass the empty string, and you will get an error from the command indicating it's missing a parameter.

-SubnetId $targetVMSubnet.Id `
-PrivateIpAddress "10.10.12.10"
