Hi,

Thanks for contacting us. The IP 168.63.129.16 is a VIP used by the Microsoft Azure fabric for different network functions as you can read in the documentation below. We have this routing in the FortiGate to allow the Azure Load Balancer both on the external and internal side to be reachable by the VIP for the health probes on port 8008.
