Public cloud networks (including Azure) do not allow virtual appliances to modify layer 2/3 MAC/IP tables. These are defined in software by the cloud environment. Thus traditional HA and first hop redundancy, which rely heavily on gratuitous ARP, wil...

Within Azure, there appear to be redundant options for various products. This is due to the fact that Azure has published the image as well as solution templates. In most cases, it is much more difficult, if not impossible to create a working solutio...

Hi Blair,Unfortunately, no. Azure doesn’t allow any hosted VM to participate in BGP, or any dynamic routing with the local vswitch. So, there’s nothing we can do to alleviate this problem.Regards,MartinFrom: "Blair Getz via Cloud Security:" Reply-To:...

Azure has a new load balancer in preview which functions much more like a traditional FHRP VIP. The big difference is that it can forward all protocols, rather than having to be configured on a per TCP/UDP port basis. Here's their documentation on it...
