Azure Traffic Analytics is a cloud-based network traffic monitoring and analysis solution that provides visibility into traffic flowing through network security groups (NSGs), virtual network gateways, and ExpressRoute circuits. It enables you to analyze traffic patterns, identify security threats, and optimize network performance.
Azure Log Analytics is a service that collects and analyzes log data from various sources in Azure and on-premises environments. It provides a centralized location for storing and querying log data, and supports various log data sources, including Azure Traffic Analytics.
By using Azure Traffic Analytics in Azure Log Analytics, you can collect and analyze network traffic data from Azure virtual networks and ExpressRoute circuits. This enables you to identify network connectivity issues, determine whether packets are being allowed or denied to the VMs, and troubleshoot network performance issues.
In summary, using Azure Traffic Analytics in Azure Log Analytics to analyze network traffic is a suitable solution for identifying network connectivity issues and determining whether packets are being allowed or denied to VMs, and thus meets the stated goal.
