This video goes over two Azure IP addresses used for Azure VM’s. The WireServer IP of 168.63.129.16 and the Azure Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) IP address 169.254.169.254. In the video, I go over what each is used for and then give a demonstration on using the WireServer IP address to quired DNS. After that, I use the IMDS REST Endpoint to pull metadata including the Azure environment and scheduled events.
See my blog post for the PowerShell commands used in this video:
