title: Unable to ping any external IP from my pod in AKS
body: <p>I've an AKS cluster running but I cannot ping any external IP from a &quot;simple&quot; container:</p>
  <pre><code>&gt; kubectl run -it --rm node --image=node:14.15.1-slim -- bash
  root@node:/# apt update &amp;&amp; apt -y install iputils-ping
  root@node:/# ping 8.8.8.8
  PING 8.8.8.8 (8.8.8.8) 56(84) bytes of data.
  </code></pre>
  <p>The last &quot;PING&quot;-line stalls forever. Any idea what causes the problem? I already added a load balancer because I read that it helped for some people but it didn't solved my issue...</p>
  <p><strong>Update</strong></p>
  <p>I can connect to any IP and the DNS also resolves. So it's fine for the first time. But I'm very interested why I cannot get any response from the ping. I guess something is blocking the ICMP messages.</p>
