Create an Application Security Group for Two Web Servers in Azure

Your company has prepared two web servers and they intend to start serving traffic to them soon. Both servers have IIS installed, but they don't have port 80 (HTTP) or 443 (HTTPS) open for internet traffic. You have been tasked with creating an application security group, associating it with a network security group, and ensuring that the servers are accessible from the internet.
