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. Azure Firewall doesn’t SNAT when the destination IP is a private IP range per [IANA RFC 1918](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1918).

If your organization uses a public IP address range for private networks, Azure Firewall will SNAT the traffic to one of the firewall private IP addresses in AzureFirewallSubnet. You can configure Azure Firewall to **not** SNAT your public IP address range. For more information, see [Azure Firewall SNAT private IP address ranges](snat-private-range.md).

|Outbound traffic on TCP port 25 isn't allowed| Outbound SMTP connections that use TCP port 25 are blocked. Port 25 is primarily used for unauthenticated email delivery. This is the default platform behavior for virtual machines. For more information, see more [Troubleshoot outbound SMTP connectivity issues in Azure](../virtual-network/troubleshoot-outbound-smtp-connectivity.md). However, unlike virtual machines, it isn't currently possible to enable this functionality on Azure Firewall.|Follow the recommended method to send email as documented in the SMTP troubleshooting article. Or, exclude the virtual machine that needs outbound SMTP access from your default route to the firewall, and instead configure outbound access directly to the Internet.

|SNAT port utilization metric shows 0%|The Azure Firewall SNAT port utilization metric may show 0% usage even when SNAT ports are used. In this case, using the metric as part of the firewall health metric provides an incorrect result.|This issue has been fixed and rollout to production is targeted for May 2020. In some cases, firewall redeployment resolves the issue, but it's not consistent. As an intermediate workaround, only use the firewall health state to look for *status=degraded*, not for *status=unhealthy*. Port exhaustion will show as *degraded*. *Not healthy* is reserved for future use when the are more metrics to impact the firewall health.
