5. Local and virtual network gateways
Local and virtual network gateways are virtual private network (VPN) gateways that are used to connect to on-premises networks and encrypt all traffic going between an Azure Virtual Network (VNet) and a local network. Each virtual network can have only one virtual network gateway, but one virtual network gateway can be used to configure multiple VPN connections.
