You will likely use the same Microsoft Azure region for most of your deployments and have a common port you use for remote desktop access to your machines. You can set a default Azure region and remote desktop port for deployments you create using ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Microsoft Azure.
Follow these steps to set defaults before you begin creating deployments:
- Start ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud Builder for Microsoft Azure.
- Sign in to Microsoft Azure.
If you want to use the Microsoft Azure Government cloud and have an Azure Government subscription, check U.S. Government Cloud.
Note:
Keep track of the account used when you deploy, because you must sign in with this same account when you upgrade the deployment.
- Choose an Azure Active Directory tenant, click Next, choose a subscription in which to create a deployment, and click Next.
- Click Settings at the top of the Cloud Builder window.
- Choose the Azure region that all or most of your deployments will use.
You can choose a different region during deployment, but set this region to the one you'll use most often.
- Specify the port to use when accessing machines in your deployment through a remote desktop connection.
