Hi,
We have some .Net applications running on Windows servers and backed by IIS.
We noticed that when the application pool got recycled or stop&start.
There will be a call to http://localhost/ with the clientIP 127.0.0.1
This is annoying us because we didn't have anything on / so it returned 404 and it reported to our monitoring tool(Azure Application Insight)

Is there any config to prevent this behavior(disable auto call to http://localhost/)?
This is our IIS version
