I created a new virtual machine scale set that's deployed over two availability zones, and I configured a load balancer and virtual network for the scale set. Now I want to connect to this new VM via RDP (in the same way I can connect to a standalone VM), but no such option seems to exist for the scale set.

Standalone VM: enter image description here

Scale set VM: enter image description here

How can I enable an RDP option for this new VM?

When you create a scale set in the portal, a load balancer is created. Network Address Translation (NAT) rules are used to distribute traffic to the scale set instances for remote connectivity such as RDP or SSH.
