Abstract
Described herein are systems, methods, and software to enhance network traffic management for virtual machines. In one implementation, a host for a virtual machine may identify applications available for execution on the virtual machine from mounted application volumes and identify firewall rules for the applications. Once identified, the host may identify network traffic for the virtual machine, and forward or block the network traffic for the virtual machine based on the firewall rules.
