az network nsg

Manage Azure Network Security Groups (NSGs).

You can control network traffic to resources in a virtual network using a network security group. A network security group contains a list of security rules that allow or deny inbound or outbound network traffic based on source or destination IP addresses, Application Security Groups, ports, and protocols.
