-## Pools in the Cloud Services Configuration
-
-> [!WARNING]
-> Cloud Services Configuration pools are [deprecated](https://azure.microsoft.com/updates/azure-batch-cloudserviceconfiguration-pools-will-be-retired-on-29-february-2024/). Use Virtual Machine Configuration pools instead.
-
-Requirements:
-
-- Supported Virtual Networks: Classic Virtual Networks only.
-- Subnet ID: when specifying the subnet using the Batch APIs, use the *resource identifier* of the subnet. The subnet identifier is of the form:
-
-    `/subscriptions/{subscription}/resourceGroups/{group}/providers/Microsoft.ClassicNetwork/virtualNetworks/{network}/subnets/{subnet}`
-
-- Permissions: the `Microsoft Azure Batch` service principal must have the `Classic Virtual Machine Contributor` Azure role for the specified Virtual Network.
-
-### Network security groups for Cloud Services Configuration pools
-
-The subnet must allow inbound communication from the Batch service to be able to schedule tasks on the compute nodes, and it must allow outbound communication to communicate with Azure Storage or other resources.
-
-You don't need to specify an NSG, because Batch configures inbound communication only from Batch IP addresses to the pool nodes. However, If the specified subnet has associated NSGs and/or a firewall, configure the inbound and outbound security rules as shown in the following tables. If communication to the compute nodes in the specified subnet is denied by an NSG, the Batch service sets the state of the compute nodes to **unusable**.
-
-Configure inbound traffic on port 3389 for Windows if you need to permit RDP access to the pool nodes. This rule isn't required for the pool nodes to be usable.
-
-**Inbound security rules**
-
-| Source IP addresses | Source ports | Destination | Destination ports | Protocol | Action |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| Any <br /><br />Although this rule effectively requires *allow all*, the Batch service applies an ACL rule at the level of each node that filters out all non-Batch service IP addresses. | * | Any | 10100, 20100, 30100 | TCP | Allow |

 # Use certificates to securely access Azure Key Vault with Batch
 
 > [!WARNING]
 > Batch account certificates as detailed in this article are [deprecated](batch-certificate-migration-guide.md). To securely access Azure Key Vault, simply use [Pool managed identities](managed-identity-pools.md) with the appropriate access permissions configured for the user-assigned managed identity to access your Key Vault. If you need to provision certificates on Batch nodes, please utilize the available Azure Key Vault VM extension in conjunction with pool Managed Identity to install and manage certificates on your Batch pool. For more information on deploying certificates from Azure Key Vault with Managed Identity on Batch pools, see [Enable automatic certificate rotation in a Batch pool](automatic-certificate-rotation.md).
-> 
-> `CloudServiceConfiguration` pools do not provide the ability to specify either Managed Identity or the Azure Key Vault VM extension, and these pools are [deprecated](https://azure.microsoft.com/updates/azure-batch-cloudserviceconfiguration-pools-will-be-retired-on-29-february-2024/). You should migrate to `VirtualMachineConfiguration` pools which provide the aforementioned alternatives.
 
 In this article, you'll learn how to set up Batch nodes with certificates to securely access credentials stored in [Azure Key Vault](../key-vault/general/overview.md).
