Summary

Replaces the legacy query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com download URLs for the AVD Agent and Bootloader MSI installers with stable go.microsoft.com fwlink redirects in Set-SessionHostConfiguration.ps1.

Changes

Installer Old URL New URL
AVD Bootloader https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RWrxrH https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2311028
AVD Agent https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RWrmXv https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2310011

Motivation

The old direct binary URLs can become stale or break when Microsoft updates the installer binaries. The go.microsoft.com fwlink URLs are the official stable redirects that will continue to point to the latest installer versions.

Replace legacy query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com URLs with stable
go.microsoft.com fwlink redirects for the AVD Agent and Bootloader
MSI installers in Set-SessionHostConfiguration.ps1.
