Exercise: Deploy and configure Azure Firewall using the Azure portal
Lab scenario
Being part of the Network Security team at Contoso, your next task is to create firewall rules to allow/deny access to certain websites. The following steps walk you through creating a resource group, a virtual network and subnets, and a virtual machine as environment preparation tasks, and then deploying a firewall and firewall policy, configuring default routes and application, network and DNAT rules, and finally testing the firewall.
