When you guys have RDSH in Azure managed by citrix cloud how what do you do for internet for the sessions? Do you have users just use what ever the VDI in azure gives them as far as internet or do you vpn back to an onsite location that has a traditional ISP. I have never really thought about what type of bandwidth you get when purchasing VMS in Azure

We use NAT GW in Azure, to get everyone connected out via same IP, which help for whitelist IP for mfa/adfs etc. You get more than enough bandwidth for internet surfing in Azure on the VM, but it all depends I guess what you are planning to use the VDI for

NAT Gateway for simple scenarios. Azure Firewall or a third-party gateway solution for more complex requirements. Add host-based filtering solutions such as MDE or a cloud proxy solution to manage general internet access access from the session hosts. It’s worth reviewing the Microsoft documentation on default outbound internet access: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/default-outbound-access because you’ll need to use at least a NAT gateway from October 2025

great, thanks. I was curious as I have never seen a mention about bandwidth usage or constraints. Ill guess il wait until a user starts torrenting movies on it. 😜

I’d block download sites etc to save on bandwidth
