You can also connect to a VM private IP address, instead of the resource ID. Microsoft Entra ID authentication, and custom ports and protocols, aren't supported when using this type of connection. For more information about IP-based connections, see Connect to a VM - IP address.
Using the az network bastion tunnel command, replace --target-resource-id with --target-ip-address and the specified IP address to connect to your VM.
az network bastion tunnel --name "<BastionName>" --resource-group "<ResourceGroupName>" --target-ip-address "<VMIPAddress>" --resource-port "<TargetVMPort>" --port "<LocalMachinePort>"
