AFW is natively HA and zone redundant.
Can be used inside a vHub, or with VNET peering to a vHub, without any route table fuckery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
AZ Standard : $1,350.75 – Threat intelligence feeds directly from Microsoft Cyber Security. Threat intelligence-based filtering can alert and deny traffic from\/to known malicious IP addresses and domains
Azure Firewall Premium : A$1,891.05 – Azure Firewall Premium provides advanced capabilities include signature-based IDPS to allow rapid detection of attacks by looking for specific patterns. These patterns can include byte sequences in network traffic, or known malicious instruction sequences used by malware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Forti : $60.50 Standard_F2s_v2 Reversed Instance – If it\u2019s a single VM, it doesn\u2019t really matter that much. You could go for Fs_v2 or the Ds_v3\/v4 series. Yes, enable accelerated networking
I have a VM-02 and decided to go with Standard DS2 v2 over the v4 recommended by support. I guess Azure bandwidth for the v4 & v3 is only 800 were the v2 is 1500.
VM01 and Accelerated networking: No, it doesn’t support it but that’s because it’s an Azure limitation. Accelerated networking is an Azure feature. https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/virtual-network\/create-vm-accelerated-networking-cli#supported-vm-instances Here you can see that you a VM size with at least two CPU cores. Use this link to check which sizes support it and which don’t. https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/virtual-machines\/sizes This might be a reason to go for a VM02, because the price difference between VM01 – VM02 is very small but the performance difference is 2x-3x times due the accelerated networking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
