Hi Bastian, just for the sake of comparison: in the case of the Amazon cloud, the mirror is accessible from inside and outside at <https://cloudfront.debian.net/>. On Azure, would the mirror be accessible from outside ? If not, what would the DNS return for a .debian.net or a .debian.org name, when queried outside from Azure ? - Nothing, or - the same as inside Azure (with the risk that this address is also valid but not a mirror on other local networks ?), or - the address of a default mirror, like http://httpredir.debian.org/, or - the address of a website with a page explaining that the mirror is not available from outside ? As a side note, it would be nice if http://httpredir.debian.org/ would point at the Azure mirror when ran from inside Azure. But this said, in the Amazon cloud Asia Pacific zone (Tokyo), http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ returns http://ftp.tw.debian.org/debian/ ...
