Azure Firewall Manager faces challenges with network address translation, requiring improvements in reverse NAT capabilities. Configuration lacks a seamless, user-friendly setup like a one-click deployment. Enhanced security features and better integration with open-source tools are necessary, along with better email phishing and spamming solutions. Users find documentation and initial setup complex despite recent improvements, and additional training or autonomous systems could solve setup issues. Improved log monitoring and query systems are also needed.
- "The solution can improve the integration with open-source tools."
- "The tool's security features need to improve. It needs also to include a monitoring system for logs. It is also complicated to find a query on the Azure firewall."
- "There should be a simple one-click deployment for a firewall, rather than a set of setup instructions that include steps such as the DNS configuration, et cetera."
