Does the Azure internal load balancer have a hidden hostname? I know the public one does but I thought the internal one also had one with a *.internal.cloudapp.net suffix at some point, similar to virtual machines:

[azureuser@bastion ~]$ hostname -f
bastion.jelt1kdogtheznzc1giioh4lrd.phx.internal.cloudapp.net

No, it does not, you can use hostfiles and\or dns entries in your own dns servers to assign hostnames to internal load balancer

Public load balancer supports inbound and outbound scenarios so hostnames are must, while an internal load balancer directs traffic only to resources that are inside a virtual network or that use a VPN to access Azure infrastructure. In this respect, an internal load balancer differs from a public load balancer.
