Virtual Network
An Azure Virtual Network (VNet) is the fundamental building block for private networking in Azure, providing isolated IP address spaces and subnets.
Subnet
A subnet is a segment of a VNet's address space into which resources and services are deployed.
VNet peering
VNet peering connects two virtual networks so resources communicate privately across them.
ExpressRoute
Azure ExpressRoute provides a private, dedicated connection between on-premises networks and Azure that bypasses the public internet.
Site-to-site VPN
A site-to-site VPN is an IPsec/IKE tunnel connecting an on-premises network to an Azure VNet over the internet.
Virtual network gateway
A virtual network gateway is the Azure resource that terminates VPN or ExpressRoute connections for a VNet.
Virtual WAN
Azure Virtual WAN is a networking service that unifies connectivity through managed virtual hubs at scale.
Azure Load Balancer
Azure Load Balancer is a Layer 4 service that distributes inbound and outbound traffic across backend resources.
Application Gateway
Azure Application Gateway is a Layer 7 web load balancer with routing, TLS, and WAF capabilities.
Azure Front Door
Azure Front Door is a global, edge-based application delivery and CDN service with routing, TLS, and caching.
Private Link
Azure Private Link provides private connectivity to Azure and partner services through private endpoints, keeping traffic off the internet.
Service endpoint
A virtual network service endpoint extends a VNet's identity to an Azure service over the Azure backbone.
Network security group
A network security group (NSG) filters inbound and outbound traffic to Azure resources with allow and deny rules.
Azure Firewall
Azure Firewall is a managed, stateful network firewall service for VNets and Virtual WAN hubs.
Web Application Firewall
A Web Application Firewall (WAF) protects web apps from common exploits and can run on Application Gateway or Front Door.
