Manage port forwarding for backend pool with Azure Load Balancer
Starting today, Azure Load Balancer enables customers to manage port forwarding for Virtual Machine Scale Sets or a group of virtual machines in a backend pool with a single set-up with minimum management overhead.
Port forwarding is done by the same hash-based distribution as load balancing. Outbound rule - An outbound rule configures outbound Network Address Translation (NAT) for all virtual machines or instances identified by the backend pool . This rule enables instances in the backend to communicate (outbound) to the internet or other endpoints.
