 # IP flow verify overview
 
-IP flow verify is a feature in Azure Network Watcher that you can use to check if a packet is allowed or denied to or from an Azure virtual machine based on the configured security and admin rules. It helps you to troubleshoot virtual machine connectivity issues by checking network security group (NSG) rules and Azure Virtual Network Manager admin rules. It's a quick and simple tool to diagnose connectivity issues to or from other Azure resources, the internet and on-premises environment.

 IP flow verify looks at the rules of all network security groups applied to a virtual machine's network interface, whether the network security group is associated to the virtual machine's subnet or network interface. It additionally, looks at the Azure Virtual Network Manager rules applied to the virtual network of the virtual machine.
