Source facts

\n

Microsoft’s private-endpoint management guide says static addressing must be assigned when the endpoint is created. Configuring a static address on an existing endpoint is unsupported. The same guide identifies network-interface naming as another creation-time choice and says the existing private-endpoint interface cannot be renamed. Microsoft Learn.

\n

Applicability

\n

Use this review when an address-management or naming requirement is introduced for a private endpoint. Identify the actual endpoint, interface, approved subnet and consuming applications. Keep the creation-time limitation distinct from ordinary DNS-record or service-connection approval changes.

\n

DSE recommendation

\n

DSE recommends settling static-address and interface-name requirements before endpoint provisioning. If a deployed endpoint does not meet the requirement, have its owner design the necessary replacement or alternative rather than promising an in-place edit. Include application dependencies, DNS, approvals and a tested recovery approach in the change plan. Do not remove the working endpoint merely to investigate available settings.

\n

Verification

\n

For an approved new endpoint, inspect the assigned address and interface name against the plan. Verify service-connection status, expected name resolution and an authorized application operation. During any planned replacement, retain evidence that consumers reach the intended new endpoint before retiring the old path. Record unfinished dependency changes explicitly.
