Connect to aks cluster:

$name= "SOMENAME"
$rg = "$name-core-rg"
$aks = "$name-core-aks"
az aks get-credentials --resource-group $rg --name $aks

Create traffic

then I went and created a new container running debian, and installed netcat (nc), and ran a script generating ucp traffic to the endpoint

# startup a new container & connect interactively
kubectl run -it --rm aks-ssh --image=debian

apt-get update && apt-get install netcat -y

while true; do 
    echo -n "environment.dummy0:$((RANDOM % 100))|c" | nc -w 1 -u 172.16.192.4 18125; 
    echo -n "servicename.dummy1:$((RANDOM % 100))|ms|@0.1" | nc -w 1 -u 172.16.192.4 18125; 
    echo -n "servicename.dummy2:43|c" | nc -w 1 -u 172.16.192.4 18125; 
done

172.16.192.4:18125

$pod = "app1-687cd765c5-hqzr9" kubectl exec -it $pod -- echo "deploys.test.myservice:1|c" | nc -w 1 -u 172.16.192.4:18125

startup a new container & connect interactively

$pod = "app1-687cd765c5-hqzr9"
kubectl exec $pod -- apt-get update kubectl exec $pod -- apt-get install -y netcat
apt-get update && apt-get install netcat -y
echo "deploys.test.myservice:1|c" | nc -w 1 -u 172.16.192.4:18125

Send Test Metrics:
