    Hi @Andrea Galli ,

    during the migration process the IP of a VM can be modified/changed. This is important because the VM in Azure might have an IP from a different IP address range than on your local network.

    As far as I know Azure Migrate can't change the hostname of a VM inside the operating system. But it's possible to change the Azure resource names of the VM and related resources (disk(s), NIC(s)) during the migration process.

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)
