Azure reserves some IP addresses within each subnet, and these addresses can't be used. The first and last IP addresses of the subnets are reserved for protocol conformance, along with three more addresses used for Azure services. For more information, see [Are there any restrictions on using IP addresses within these subnets?](../virtual-network/virtual-networks-faq.md#are-there-any-restrictions-on-using-ip-addresses-within-these-subnets)

In addition to the IP addresses used by the Azure VNET infrastructure, each Api Management instance in the subnet uses two IP addresses per unit of Premium SKU or one IP address for the Developer SKU. Each instance reserves an additional IP address for the external load balancer. When deploying into Internal vnet, it requires an additional IP address for the internal load balancer.
