Azure-docs: Cluster IP for Remote Region

[richardspitz]

Just as step 10 and 14 add an IP and dependency for the listener client access point, from the network in the remote region, you need to add a secondary IP for the Cluster Name from the network in the remote region. If this is not done and the primary region fails, the Cluster Name will not come online in the secondary region, potentially creating problems with managing the Cluster when you attempt to bring it online.

@richardspitz , thank you so much for reaching out and helping improve our documentation! You are correct, the IP should be added to the cluster resource as well. I have created an internal work item to track this work (1657328). I'm going to close out this Git Issue for the time being but please comment should you need anything further from us in the meantime.

Thanks!
