+If you don't require a static IP address, you can enable a [service endpoint](../../virtual-network/virtual-network-service-endpoints-overview.md) for Azure Files within the virtual network. A service endpoint configures storage accounts to allow access only from specific subnets. The allowed subnets can belong to a virtual network in the same subscription or a different subscription, including those that belong to a different Microsoft Entra tenant. There's no extra charge for using service endpoints. However, be aware that a rare event such as a zonal outage could cause the underlying IP address of the storage account to change. While the data will still be available on the file share, the client would require a remount of the share.
