    .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
    .withNewResourceGroup(rgName)
    .defineRule("ALLOW-SSH")
        .allowInbound()
        .fromAnyAddress()
        .fromAnyPort()
        .toAnyAddress()
        .toPort(22)
        .withProtocol(SecurityRuleProtocol.TCP)
        .withPriority(100)

    .withRegion(Region.US_EAST)
    .withExistingResourceGroup(resourceGroup)
    // Request routing rule for HTTP from public 80 to public 8080
    .defineRequestRoutingRule("HTTP-80-to-8080")
        .fromPublicFrontend()
        .fromFrontendHttpPort(80)
        .toBackendHttpPort(8080)
        .toBackendIPAddress("11.1.1.1")
        .toBackendIPAddress("11.1.1.2")
