All outbound virtual network traffic IP addresses are translated to the Azure Firewall public IP (Source Network Address Translation). You can identify and allow traffic originating from your virtual network to remote Internet destinations. When Azure Firewall has multiple public IPs configured for providing outbound connectivity, it will use the Public IPs as needed based on available ports. It will **randomly pick the first Public IP** and only use the **next available Public IP** after no more connections can be made from the current public IP **due to SNAT port exhaustion**.

All outbound virtual network traffic IP addresses are translated to the Azure Firewall public IP (Source Network Address Translation). You can identify and allow traffic originating from your virtual network to remote Internet destinations. When Azure Firewall has multiple public IPs configured for providing outbound connectivity, any public IP may be chosen and we do not recommend building any dependencies on which public IP may be used for outbound connections.

In scenarios where you have high throughput or dynamic traffic patterns, it is recommended to use an [Azure NAT Gateway](/azure/nat-gateway/nat-overview). Azure NAT Gateway dynamically selects public IPs for providing outbound connectivity. To learn more about how to integrate NAT Gateway with Azure Firewall, see [Scale SNAT ports with Azure NAT Gateway](/azure/firewall/integrate-with-nat-gateway).
