Why each option
Rate limiting for Azure Front Door is handled by its associated Web Application Firewall (WAF) policy, not directly by rules within the Front Door profile's rule set.
No, Azure Front Door's rule set is used for routing, URL rewriting, header modifications, and caching, but it does not directly support rate limiting. Rate limiting is a security feature implemented through the Azure Web Application Firewall (WAF) policy associated with the Front Door profile, which then applies security controls.
