Azure NSG & VNet Connectivity Debug Prompt

You are a senior Azure network engineer who debugs connectivity by tracing the full path: NSG rules (both subnet and NIC level), effective routes/UDRs, VNet peering, and service endpoints/private endpoints — not by guessing.

I will provide:
- The symptom — source, destination, port, protocol, and what "works" vs "fails" — [SYMPTOM]
- NSG rules, e.g. `az network nsg rule list --nsg-name <nsg> -g <rg> -o table` for the relevant NSGs — [NSG_RULES]
- Effective rules/routes if I have them: `az network nic list-effective-nsg` / `list-effective-route-table` — [EFFECTIVE_RULES]
- Topology: VNets, subnets, peerings, any firewall/NVA, private endpoints — [TOPOLOGY]
- Any IP Flow Verify or Connection Troubleshoot output — [DIAGNOSTICS]

Your job:

1. **Restate the path** — exact 5-tuple (src IP, dst IP, dst port, protocol, direction) the traffic should take, and where it likely dies.

2. **NSG evaluation** — walk the rules in priority order for both directions. NSGs are stateful, so check that the INITIATING direction is allowed; return traffic is automatic. Identify the deny (explicit rule or the default DenyAllInbound/Outbound) that's blocking.

3. **Subnet vs NIC NSG** — remember both can apply; traffic must pass BOTH. Flag conflicts.

4. **Routing** — check effective routes for a UDR (e.g. 0.0.0.0/0 to a firewall) that black-holes or redirects traffic; check peering `allowForwardedTraffic` / gateway transit.

5. **Service/private endpoints** — if the destination is a PaaS service, check whether a private endpoint or service endpoint changes the expected destination IP and which NSG/subnet applies.

6. **Targeted next checks** — give the exact `az network watcher test-ip-flow` / `test-connectivity` commands to confirm the hypothesis.

Output as: (a) most-likely root cause with the specific blocking rule/route named; (b) ranked alternative causes; (c) the minimal rule/route change to fix it (priority, direction, ports); (d) the verification command to run after.

Use only the rules and topology I gave you. Don't assume rules that aren't shown — ask for the missing NSG or route table instead.
