 When configuring network security groups or route tables that applies to outbound traffic, you must make sure you consider your application dependencies. Application dependencies include endpoints that your app needs during runtime. Besides APIs and services the app is calling, these endpoints could also be derived endpoints like certificate revocation list (CRL) check endpoints and identity/authentication endpoint, for example Microsoft Entra ID. If you're using [continuous deployment in App Service](./deploy-continuous-deployment.md), you might also need to allow endpoints depending on type and language. Specifically for [Linux continuous deployment](https://github.com/microsoft/Oryx/blob/main/doc/hosts/appservice.md#network-dependencies), you need to allow `oryx-cdn.microsoft.io:443`. For Python you additionally need to allow `files.pythonhosted.org`, `pypi.org`.
 
+Azure uses UDP port 30,000 to do network health checks. If you block this traffic, it will not directly impact your app, but it will be more difficult for Azure support to detect and troubleshoot network related issues.

 When you want to route outbound traffic on-premises, you can use a route table to send outbound traffic to your Azure ExpressRoute gateway. If you do route traffic to a gateway, set routes in the external network to send any replies back. Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routes also affect your app traffic. If you have BGP routes from something like an ExpressRoute gateway, your app outbound traffic is affected. Similar to user-defined routes, BGP routes affect traffic according to your routing scope setting.
