Connectivity
Connectivity is used to describe all processes for establishing communication channels, to or within the VNet. At present, we know three types of connectivity:
- Internet connectivity
- Connectivity between Azure resources (internal connectivity)
- On-premises connectivity
Internet connectivity
All Azure resources that are connected to a VNet, have an internet connectivity in the outgoing direction by default. The private IP address used by the resource is translated into a public IP address by the Azure infrastructure via a Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) operation.
In order to be able to communicate with Azure resources over the internet in the incoming direction, you must assign a public IP address for the resource to your VNet.
Connectivity between Azure resources (internal connectivity)
Internal connectivity is the main area in the connectivity sector, because, without communication between Azure resources, no solution would work and ultimately, there would be no Azure network...
