https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/advisor/advisor-overviewThe solution provided in the question is not correct. Azure Advisor is a tool that provides recommendations to optimize and improve the performance, security, and availability of Azure resources. It does not provide network traffic analysis functionality.
To analyze network traffic, you need to use network monitoring and diagnostic tools, such as Azure Network Watcher, which provides packet capture functionality. With packet capture, you can capture and analyze network traffic to identify issues such as packet loss, latency, and network connectivity problems. Additionally, you can use network security group (NSG) flow logs to determine whether traffic is being allowed or denied to the VMs.
Therefore, the correct solution to analyze network traffic to determine whether packets are being allowed or denied to the VMs is to use Azure Network Watcher and NSG flow logs.
