How to Know the Which IP-Port belongs to Which Instance of the Virtual Machine Scale Set

Question

I have an Azure Windows VMSS with 2 instances in running state with a load balancer:

My VMSS Public IP is 20.1.13.195

I'm connecting with 1st VM instance using RDP Service - 20.1.13.195:50000 2nd VM Instance with - 20.1.13.195:50001.

I'm able to connect with 1st VMSS Instances using (its Public IP : Front end Port) in RDP Connection Service.

I also tested with the IP 20.1.13.195:50002 which is connection failed because there is no 3rd instance. This is as expected.

My Doubt is When I'm Connecting with the Instance IP (20.1.13.195:50001), Can I Confirm it is connecting to 2nd VM Instance. If yes, how?

Once you RDP to the machine you can just look at the machine name? — Sam Cogan, Jan 27 '23 at 09:42

Thank You @SamCogan.

After you sign in to the VM using port 50001, check computername to see if it is 2nd VM Instance. Several methods:

Right-click on Start -- Run, cmd.exe At prompt type: set comp and press enter. You should see COMPUTERNAME=TestWinVMSS01_1
Right-click on Start -- System You should see Device name TestWinVMSS01_1
Right-click on Start -- Run, sysdm.cpl This will show you full computer name
