DMS Prerequisites: What IP to whitelist in the firewall on the source side? #122320

Open maximilianpalm opened 4 months ago

maximilianpalm commented 4 months ago

Under prerequisites it says "When using a firewall appliance in front of your source database(s), you may need to add firewall rules to allow the Azure Database Migration Service to access the source database(s) for migration." I didn't which IP needs to be whitelisted in the firewall, so I kept searching for this piece of information BEFORE I attempted to create the DMS.

It would be helpful to add that the IP that needs to be whitelisted can be found by checking the NIC resource once the DMS was created. Alternatively, there could be a link to the FAQ: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dms/faq#how-do-i-find-the-ip-address-for-azure-database-migration-service-so-that-i-can-create-an-allowlist-for-the-firewall-rules-used-to-access-my-source-database-for-migration-
