       - question: How does Azure Firewall work differently from existing services such as NVAs in the marketplace?
-        answer: Azure Firewall is a managed, cloud-based network security service that protects your virtual network resources. It's a fully stateful firewall as a service with built-in high availability and unrestricted cloud scalability. It is pre-integrated with third-party security as a service (SECaaS) providers to provide advanced security for your virtual network and branch Internet connections. To learn more about Azure network security, see [Azure network security](../networking/security/index.yml).

         answer: Yes, you can use Azure Firewall in a hub virtual network to route and filter traffic between two spoke virtual network. Subnets in each of the spoke virtual networks must have a UDR pointing to the Azure Firewall as a default gateway for this scenario to work properly.
 
       - question: Can Azure Firewall forward and filter network traffic between subnets in the same virtual network or peered virtual networks?
-        answer: Yes. However, configuring the UDRs to redirect traffic between subnets in the same VNET requires additional attention. While using the VNET address range as a target prefix for the UDR is sufficient, this also routes all traffic from one machine to another machine in the same subnet through the Azure Firewall instance. To avoid this, include a route for the subnet in the UDR with a next hop type of **VNET**. Managing these routes might be cumbersome and prone to error. The recommended method for internal network segmentation is to use Network Security Groups, which don't require UDRs.

       - question: |
           What does *Provisioning state: Failed* mean?
-        answer: Whenever a configuration change is applied, Azure Firewall attempts to update all its underlying backend instances. In rare cases, one of these backend instances may fail to update with the new configuration and the update process  stops with a failed provisioning state. Your Azure Firewall is still operational, but the applied configuration may be in an inconsistent state, where some instances have the previous configuration where others have the updated rule set. If this happens, try updating your configuration one more time until the operation succeeds and your Firewall is in a *Succeeded* provisioning state.

       - question: How does Azure Firewall handle planned maintenance and unplanned failures?
-        answer: Azure Firewall consists of several backend nodes in an active-active configuration.  For any planned maintenance, we have connection draining logic to gracefully update nodes.  Updates are planned during non-business hours for each of the Azure regions to further limit risk of disruption.  For unplanned issues, we instantiate a new node to replace the failed node.  Connectivity to the new node is typically reestablished within 10 seconds from the time of the failure.

       - question: How does connection draining work?
         answer: For any planned maintenance, connection draining logic gracefully updates backend nodes. Azure Firewall waits 90 seconds for existing connections to close. In the first 45 seconds, the backend node doesn't accept new connections, and in the remaining time it responds with `RST` to all incoming packets. If needed, clients can automatically re-establish connectivity to another backend node.

-         An Azure Firewall VM instance shutdown may occur during Virtual Machine Scale Set scale in (scale down) or during fleet software upgrade.

Idle Timeout for east-west traffic can't be changed.
 
           If a period of inactivity is longer than the timeout value, there's no guarantee that the TCP or HTTP session is maintained. A common practice is to use a TCP keep-alive. This practice keeps the connection active for a longer period. For more information, see the [.NET examples](/dotnet/api/system.net.servicepoint.settcpkeepalive).
