Answer 1

The SQL Database service creates a firewall at the database server level for single and pooled databases. This firewall prevents client applications from connecting to the server or any of its single or pooled databases unless you create an IP firewall rule to open the firewall. For a connection from an IP address outside Azure, create a firewall rule for a specific IP address or range of addresses that you want to be able to connect.
