Demo: Azure Firewall Testing

We’ve successfully deployed an Azure Firewall. Next, let’s create a default route, configure an application rule that allows access to Google, configure a network rule, and configure a NATnetwork address translation rule. Lastly, we will test the firewall.

• A “test_firewall” named firewall
• A “Virtual_Network” named virtual network
