For example, if you have two public IP addresses, you can translate TCP port 3389 (RDP) for both IP addresses. SNAT - More ports are available for outbound SNAT connections, reducing the potential for SNAT port exhaustion. At this time, Azure Firewall randomly selects the source public IP...
SNAT port exhaustion Azure Firewall currently supports 2496 ports per Public IP address per backend Virtual Machine Scale Set instance. By default, there are two Virtual Machine Scale Set instances. So, there are 4992 ports per flow (destination IP, destination port and protocol (TCP or UDP)....
For example, if you have two public IP addresses, you can translate TCP port 3389 (RDP) for both IP addresses. SNAT – Additional ports are available for outbound SNAT connections, reducing the potential for SNAT port exhaustion. Figure one – Sample Azure Firewall Public IP configuration with...
For production scenarios, we recommend having a minimum of 20 frontend IPs on the Azure Firewall to avoid SNAT port exhaustion issues.The following information provides an example architecture of the deployment:Public ingress is forced to flow through firewall filters AKS agent nodes are isolated ...
On the destination server, the packet capture shows that the source IP has changed to the public IP of the Azure Firewall. The source port and Seq #s has also been changed because of the flow being filtered by an Application rule. This SNAT behavior is expected in this configuration. ...
Create alert rule for risk of SNAT port exhaustion. Azure Firewall provides 2,496 SNAT ports per public IP address configured per backend virtual machine scale instance. It’s important to estimate in advance the number of SNAT ports that can fulfill your organizational requirements for outbound ...
Why SNAT ports are important to outbound connectivity For anyone working in a virtual cloud space, it is likely that you will encounter internet connection failures at some point. One of the most common reasons for connection failures isSNAT port exhaustion, which happens when the source endpoint...

This eliminates the potential of SNAT port exhaustion in the isolated internal IP address space when the translation isn’t necessary. Conclusion Users that need multi-tier applications with worldwide accessibility and scalability can use load-balancing algorithms to send clients to the closest endpoint...
SNAT port exhaustion on the APIM VMs There is an additional network device (like a firewall) that is blocking the APIM service from communicating with the backend API Backend API isn’t responding to the APIM requests (backend down or not responding) ...
