This template will deploy a server level DNS forwarder on Windows server with 168.63.129.16 on Azure. A server level DNS forwarder is very helpful with some DNS scenarios when it comes to using Azure Private Endpoint. You will need a DNS forwarder to access the Private Zone created while enabling the Azure Private Endpoint and managed by 168.63.129.16.
Below are the specific cases where you need a DNS forwarder on Azure:
- Using custom DNS with no DNS servers on Azure
- Trying to access your PaaS resources using the Azure Private via VPN ( Point-to-Site, Site-to-Site, ExR)
- Name of the existing VNET and subnet you want to deploy the DNS server into
- You will have a choice to pick up an existing RG or create a new one
- Set up the login and the password for your DNS Server
