Frequently Asked Questions about azure-network-watcher

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I troubleshoot outbound connectivity issues from an Azure VM?▼

Network Watcher troubleshooting allows you to diagnose Azure VM outbound connectivity by checking NSG security rules, verifying VPN gateway status, and testing IP flow. This isolates whether security configurations block traffic.

What is the best way to diagnose intermittent connectivity between on-premises networks and Azure?▼

Diagnosing intermittent hybrid connectivity requires using Network Watcher to evaluate VPN gateway health and NSG rules. This validates tunnel configurations and identifies packet loss points across on-premises and Azure boundaries.

How do I configure Azure network flow logs for security analysis?▼

Configuring Azure network flow logs involves enabling logging within Network Watcher and applying RBAC for secure data management. This produces traffic datasets ready for parsing and visualizing security insights.

Does Azure Network Watcher work with Azure CLI and PowerShell?▼

Azure Network Watcher supports both Azure CLI and PowerShell for automating troubleshooting, configuring RBAC security, and optimizing network monitoring. This allows scripted management of diagnostic tasks.

What are the limits and quotas for Azure Network Watcher diagnostics?▼

Azure Network Watcher enforces specific limits and quotas on diagnostic tools to manage resource consumption and prevent throttling. Understanding these constraints is necessary when automating large-scale network troubleshooting workflows.
