From @Galaxylinq via Twitter:
"All my sites are basically behind LB, and I can easily route them to different VMs which is a very nice feature! Do you recommend using the main public VIP of the VM for sending HTTP traffic to it for one of my sites (assuming NSG rule is setup for port 80) OR for HTTP I should channel everything through LB and have the public VM ip only for restricted RD management access? What would you recommend? I understand, if sending HTTP traffic to VM VIP, there is no load balancing possible so may be from that prospective we should channel everything through LB, so even if using simple NAT rules for now, later we can enable load balancing."
