Load Balancer uses a distributed probing service for its internal health model. The probing service resides on each host where VMs and can be programmed on-demand to generate health probes per the customer's configuration. The health probe traffic is directly between the probing service that generates the health probe and the customer VM. All Load Balancer health probes originate from the IP address 168.63.129.16 as their source.

The probing service resides on each host where VMs and can be programmed on-demand to generate health probes per the customer's configuration. The health probe traffic is directly between the probing service that generates the health probe and the customer VM. All IPv4 Load Balancer health probes originate from the IP address 168.63.129.16 as their source. (Note that IPv6 probes use a [link-local address](https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link-local_address) as their source.)
