azureedge.net sample return values

[felixfontein]

SUMMARY

The azure_rm_cdnendpoint and azure_rm_afdendpoint_info modules mention the azureedge.net domain in return value samples.

A company called Edgio have gone bankrupt and the azureedge.net CDN will be going away on 15th January 2025. I don't know how these sample return values are related to that company, but it might make sense to update them.

@felixfontein Thank you for submitting the problems encountered. I don't quite understand your idea. Do you want to update host_name(azureedge.net) through this module? Thank you!

[felixfontein]

I mainly forwarded the issue from ansible-community/ansible-build-data#512.

Check out the links posted there, like:

• https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/critical-dotnet-install-links-are-changing/
• https://build5nines.com/retirement-of-azureedge-net-dns-edg-io-business-closure-and-what-you-need-to-know/
• Critical: .NET install domains and URLs are changing dotnet/core#9671

Keeping references to a domain that could suddenly contain things totally unrelated to Azure sounds like a bad idea to me.

@felixfontein I am very sorry for replying you so late. I have checked the latest version of the azure-mgmt-cdn package, and the parameter host_name is the default, which cannot be configured (azureedge.net domain name is the default), thank you!

[felixfontein]

If you think this should be kept then feel free to close the issue. I'm not using Azure at all (except AZP for some collections), I was just passing the warning on.

@felixfontein Yes, the question you raised is necessary, and I will continue to follow up on this issue. Once the API update, I will immediately use azure.azcollection. Thank you!
