The information in this section serves as a reference for deploying Cloud NGFW using Azure portal. You can use the Azure portal to deploy the Cloud NGFW across multiple Azure accounts. The Azure portal uses the Cloud NGFW console to author local rulestacks.

Two deployment methods are supported:

Azure VNets

and

Azure vWANs

. An Azure vNET enables secure communication with other Azure resources, the internet, and on-premises networks. An Azure vWAN represents a networking service that combines networking, security, and routing functionalities together to provide a singular, operational interface. Deploying in your Azure environment requires the Cloud NGFW console and the Azure portal.
