Protecting Servers in Azure with a vMX100

All information I've got regarding Azure and vMX100 is configuring it as a VPN concentrator. However, is it possible to protect servers in Azure?

 

I know that Azure has a service to protect against DoS attacks and that the vMX100 cannot enable the enhanced security features available in physical MXs, but would it be possible to have a simple layer 3 security in addition to the VPN concentrator feature?

 

I mean, If I managed to redirect all traffic coming and going from/to my servers in azure through the vMX100 (0.0.0.0/0, not just my internal networks) would it be possible to effectively protect them with the firewall options available in the dashboard.

 

Have anyone made this in Azure?

 

Thanks!!

No, this is not possible.  The vMX is strictly a VPN concentrator.

I'd love this feature also. There are so many other vendors which have SD-WAN capable Firewalls on the market I'd love to Meraki to be one of them.
