Thus you cannot create a CNAME for '' (sometimes called a 'naked' domain). DNS standards do not allow you to create a CNAME at the 'apex' (or root) of a domain. When using a vanity domain with Azure Traffic Manager, you must use a CNAME to point your vanity domain name to your Traffic Manager domain name. Configure their vanity domain name, '', to point to '', using a DNS CNAME record.Create a Traffic Manager profile, named '', and configure it to use the 'Performance' traffic-routing method across the three endpoints.The DNS names of these deployments are '', '', and ''.

Deploy three instances of their service.To achieve this configuration, they complete the following steps: To improve availability and maximize global performance, they use Traffic Manager to distribute client traffic to the closest available endpoint. The application is hosted in three regions of Azure. Traffic Manager exampleĬontoso Corp have developed a new partner portal. Traffic Manager does not see the traffic passing between the client and the service. Traffic Manager is not a proxy or a gateway. Clients connect to the selected endpoint directly. Traffic Manager uses DNS to direct clients to specific service endpoints based on the rules of the traffic-routing method. The most important point to understand is that Traffic Manager works at the DNS level which is at the Application layer (Layer-7). The client then connects to that IP address to access the service. When a client attempts to connect to a service, it must first resolve the DNS name of the service to an IP address. Continuous monitoring of endpoint health and automatic failover when endpoints fail.Distribution of traffic according to one of several traffic-routing methods.Traffic Manager provides two key benefits: An endpoint is any Internet-facing service hosted inside or outside of Azure. Please refer the following links which talks about Configuring SSL for an application in Azure.Azure Traffic Manager enables you to control the distribution of traffic across your application endpoints. Certificates issued from private CA servers are not supported by Azure Websites.The certificate must use a minimum of 2048-bit encryption.For example, if your custom domain name is you would request a certificate from your CA for *. When you request a certificate from a CA the certificate's subject name must match the custom domain name used to access your application. You must acquire a custom domain name to use when access your service. You cannot obtain an SSL certificate from a certificate authority (CA) for the domain. The certificate's subject name must match the domain used to access the cloud service.The certificate must be created for key exchange, exportable to a Personal Information Exchange (.pfx) file.The certificate must contain a private key.The certificate must meet the following requirements for SSL certificates in Azure: If you do not already have one, you will need to obtain oneįrom a company that sells SSL certificates. To configure SSL for an application, you first need to get an SSL certificate that has been signed by a Certificate Authority (CA), a trusted third-party who issues certificates for this purpose.
