Ensure Route Tables have static routes for session host traffic targeting the AVD control plane to go directly to the internet (next hop). This avoids delays from additional hops or inspections in trusted traffic communication.
Ensure Route Tables have static routes for session host traffic targeting the AVD control plane (WindowsVirtualDesktop service tag) to go directly to the internet (next hop). This avoids delays from additional hops or inspections in trusted traffic communication. If sending all traffic through a firewall is required ensure the firewall is configured to allow AVD control plane traffic.
