IP security and always on in Azure

I have a continuous WebJob running in an Azure web app that requires me to save the Always On app. In the same application, I configured the web.config file to block unregistered IP addresses with NotFound error:

<security>
  <ipSecurity allowUnlisted="false" denyAction="NotFound">
    <add ipAddress="123.456.789.123" allowed="true"/> <!--office-->
    <add ipAddress="168.62.180.0" allowed="true"/> <!--azure (for Always On setting)-->
  </ipSecurity>
</security>

The Always On setting appears to force Azure to check the site every 5 minutes in the background, but the security settings block the Azure icons, cluttering the error logs. However, other white IPs have access to the application; these are only Azure locks that are locked.

Here is a screenshot of the error log from one of the blocked emails: Azure ping blocked

Any insight on how to resolve in Azure Pills would be very helpful!

Resolving both of these IPs worked for me. Since the ping for Always on came from ":: 1" ip, however I also added "127.0.0.1" to the list.



<add allowed="true" ipAddress="::1" />
<add allowed="true" ipAddress="127.0.0.1" />
