Azure NSG is that possible

Question

Is it possible to enable NSG to a cloud service for security purpose? I tried creating a Vnet but I cannot add my NSG to the vnet I created, not sure if thats even possible to do.

Hi do you have a link for a tutorial how to create cloud service and connect it with a NSG? — Hawk, Apr 05 '19 at 00:25

You cannot assign an NSG to a Cloud Service. CLoud Service is the old deployment model under Azure Service Management. I would encourage you to move to an Azure Resource Model design with a VNET and create a SUBNET. You then have two options for an NSG. 1) Create an NSG and assign to your SUBNET or 2) Create a VM, create an NSG and assign the NSG to the NIC of your VM.

Its been a while since I handled Azure. So Cloud Service is an old deployment, but does the newer deployment(Is that App Service?) support NSG or is that even possible?? Thanks – Hawk Apr 05 '19 at 01:01
NSGs are only available for VNET subnets and VM NIC's. You can create an Access Restriction for your AppService which is basically allow/deny based on IP/subnet [more info here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-au/azure/app-service/app-service-ip-restrictions). – Lucian Franghiu Apr 05 '19 at 01:40

For cloud services you cant attach NSGs. Its old way of deploying apps to VMs. If your using cloud services you have to use ACLs. Is there any specific requirement of using cloud service? because its a deprecated way of deploying apps. You can use Azure VMs or VM Scale Set for app deployments.

Azure NSG is that possible
