    Azure Application Gateway should only receive requests on ports with a listener. If you do not want connections to come in on port 80, make sure to delete any listeners you have for HTTP or port 80.

    If you want to make sure that the connections are blocked, you can use a Web Application Firewall on Application Gateway with a block on port 80 for all IPs.
