Unable to connect to SFTP server in Azure from any machines in Azure since Azure Firewall configured

Pegah Sohrabi 0

Hi,

We have recently configured the Azure Firewall, and since then, connection to the SFTP virtual server in Azure has been failing for devices within Azure.

It was working fine before we configured the Azure Firewall.

However, connecting to the SFTP server from any device outside Azure works fine.

Can someone help us to fix the issue?

Thanks,

Peg

Hello @Pegah Sohrabi ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

I understand that you are unable to connect to your SFTP server in Azure from any Azure virtual machines after you configured Azure Firewall in your network.

Could you please confirm if you are forcing all traffic to the Azure Firewall, or the Azure Firewall is configured with forced tunneling mode?

Refer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firewall/forced-tunneling

Could you also share your setup details? Are all the deployments i.e. your SFTP server, Azure VM and Azure Firewall in the same Virtual network or different virtual networks?

Regards,

Gita
