How to assign azure custom dns to public ip - azure

I have resource group on azure containing virtual machine and kubernetes and load balancer and public ip address and etc.
I can access to my kubernetes app with direct public ip or public ip dns name. But problem is that i can't get azure custom dns (dns zone) working for my public ip. e.g. myapp.com
I have tried to assign public ip address in dns zone but not getting custom dns name working for my app.

2 options:
1. A record that points to public ip address explicitly
2. CNAME record that points to azure "internal" dns name

From the description it looks like you haven't updated the name server settings of your domain (e.g. myapp.com) to use Azure DNS's name servers (where you have created a zone for that domain name) for query resolutions.
The article linked below has instructions on how to do it. Please let us know if this answers your question.

How do I map a domain name to public ip in azure virtual machine?

I have created a vm using azure.microsoft.com
I have installed IIS it is working in localhost,
I maped the public ip to iis.
Now I bought a domain from onlydomains.com
How Can I map the domain name to the public Ip ?
Go to onlydomains.com from where you brought the domain, login with your account and open the DNS records of the DNS that you have purchased and want to map it to the Azure VM IP address where your IIS site is running.
Then under that DNS records add A record and provide the public IP of Azure VM. You will be all set then

How to set up endpoints within a Azure Virtual Machine

I'm trying to set up MailTrain (a newsletter application) on an Azure VM. I created a resource group with the virtual machine, a virtual network, a network interface, a network security group, a public ip adress and a private DNS zone.
MailTrain expects three URL endpoints which all point to the same IP adress. For testing purposes I would like to create internal endpoints which all point to the VM. I played around with DNS entries in the DNS zone, but it doesn't work as I expected.
The name of the private DNS zone is equal to the DNS name of the VM's public IP adress. The private DNS zone and the VM are linked with the virtual network link and auto registration is enabled. The virtual network contains a default subnet. I created an A entry for "lists" pointing to the VM's internal IP adress and a CNAME entry for "sbox" pointing to the DNS name of the public IP adress. Inbound rules for the ports 80 and 443 were added to the netwwork security group.
The console shows me the following message while running the installation script:
Domain: lists.xxx.cloudapp.azure.com
Type: None
Detail: DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up A for
lists.xxx.cloudapp.azure.com - check that
a DNS record exists for this domain

Followed that quick start, you just need to create three DNS records in your public domain DNS zone.
Please note that there is public DNS and private DNS in Azure. In this case, I assume you have created a private DNS zone for internal endpoints. To resolve the records of a private DNS zone from your virtual network, you must link the virtual network with the zone. Additionally, you can also enable autoregistration on a virtual network link. If you enable auto registration on a virtual network link, the DNS records for the virtual machines on that virtual network are registered in the private zone. Or, you can manually create an A record to map to your VM's private IP address in the zone and create other CNAME records to map to the other internal endpoints.
As a best practice, do not use a .local domain for your private DNS zone. Not all operating systems support this.
In addition, you need to add inbound ports 80, 443 in your network security group that associated with the Azure VM subnet or NIC.
Update
For an internal test, you can use a private DNS zone because the DNS records in a private Zone can only be resolved in a virtual network it can not be resolved over the Internet, you could select the local installation in this scenario.
For example, I create a private DNS zone named contoso.com,
After local install, you can access the website via the trusted endpoint http://localhost:3000, then you should access the other endpoints in the VNet instead of access external.
However, if you want to use it for public access, you could select to install a public website secured by SSL. In this case, you need to purchase a domain and add the related DNS records to the DNS zone in the respective DNS provider. Azure DNS zone supports host your public domain zones in Azure.

Configure custom DNS for Public IP Address

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.

how to set dns to azure aks?

I am currently using Azure AKS.
I have a frontend application which is using LoadBalancer to have a public IP to access the service.
Should I just direct my domain name to the public IP address?
Because the IP is dynamic, if the port is destroy and recreate again, a new IP is generated.
Should I use Ingress/Nginx controller to manage the IP?
You can use A record points to the external IP address.
You can change the public IP address to static via Azure portal, in this way, restart the service will not change the IP.
But in Azure, if we delete the Azure AKS, the Public IP address will collected by Azure platform, and we will lose this IP address.
You can use kubernetes-incubator/external-dns to automatically update the A record in your Azure DNS zone with the (dynamic) IP of the Azure Loadbalancer or Ingress controller. Read here how to set up.
You're not limited to use Azure DNS, you could use other providers to, in v0.4: Google CloudDNS, AWS Route 53, AzureDNS, CloudFlare, DigitalOcean,
DNSimple, Infoblox
Should I just direct my domain name to the public IP address?
As Mohit said, we can set static public IP via Azure portal, and map your domian name to that Public IP address.
Because the IP is dynamic, if the port is destroy and recreate again,
a new IP is generated.
By default, AKS expose pods to internet will create a Kubernetes service, the Public IP address work for that service.
If one pod was not work(multiple pods), AKS will create another pod in your service and that will not get a new public IP. But if you only have one pod in that service and re-create that pod, we will get a new Public IP address.
For now, Azure does not support to keep the public IP address for AKS service.
Hope this helps.

Can an Azure NIC be pointed to records one created in an Azure DNS zone?

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.
