Explanation

Azure AD Password Protection includes a custom banned password list feature, which is configured in the Azure Active Directory admin center under Security > Authentication methods > Password protection. Adding 'contoso' to the custom banned password list prevents users (both cloud and on-premises via the Password Protection proxy agent) from using it in their passwords. Azure AD Connect (and Synchronization Service Manager) handles directory synchronization, not password policy configuration. Active Directory Users and Computers manages AD objects like users and groups, not Azure AD password protection policies. Windows Admin Center is a server management tool and does not configure Azure AD password protection settings.
