Azure VPS setup notes¶

I have a lot more to put here, but for now:

VPS provisioning¶

• You need a Sponsorship->Subscription->Resource Group->Virtual Machine.
• Check that you have credits in your sponsored account: https://www.microsoftazuresponsorships.com/Balance
• Add a subscription of type "Microsoft Azure Sponsorship" from the Azure portal.
• Create a resource group. (Needs more docs)
• Add a virtual machine. (Needs more docs)
• Add endpoints for ports 22, 80, 443, and 5665.
