SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developers working with Azure Application Network often struggle to find correct, up-to-date guidance on version compatibility with AKS and Application Gateway, and on enabling observability through Azure Monitor logs and metrics.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Version Decision Support: Select compatible AKS, Application Gateway, and Application Network versions, including upgrade considerations.
  • Observability Configuration: Enable and analyze Application Network logs in Azure Monitor and configure metrics for monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Live Documentation Fetching: Retrieves current Microsoft Learn documentation via mcp_microsoftdocs or fetch_webpage with a category index for quick lookup.
  • Use Case: Before upgrading an AKS cluster integrated with Application Gateway, ask the agent to verify supported Application Network version combinations and then enable diagnostic logs in Azure Monitor.

Quick Start

Ask the agent which Application Network versions are compatible with your AKS cluster and how to enable its logs in Azure Monitor.

Frequently Asked Questions about azure-application-network

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check which Application Network versions are compatible with AKS?

Use the Decision Making category in this skill, which points to the supported-versions documentation on Microsoft Learn. It lists compatible AKS, Application Gateway, and Application Network version combinations and upgrade considerations.

How to enable Application Network logs in Azure Monitor?

The Configuration category links to the official logs documentation at learn.microsoft.com/azure/application-network/logs. The agent fetches this page to walk you through enabling and analyzing Application Network logs in Azure Monitor.

Does this skill work without network access?

No, this skill requires network access to fetch documentation. It prefers the mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetch tool and falls back to fetch_webpage, both returning Markdown content from Microsoft Learn.

When should I use azure-application-network instead of azure-application-gateway?

Use azure-application-network for Application Network versioning, logs, and metrics tasks. For Azure Application Gateway, Virtual Network, Virtual Network Manager, or general networking topics, use the dedicated skills named in the description instead.

What happens if the mcp_microsoftdocs tool is not installed?

The skill falls back to fetch_webpage with the from=learn-agent-skill query parameter to retrieve Markdown documentation. The skill also suggests installing the Microsoft Docs MCP server via its installation guide.
