What is one of the main components of VNet peering?

  1. Network Security Groups

  2. Route tables

  3. Private IP address communication

  4. VPN gateways

The correct answer is: Private IP address communication

One of the main components of VNet peering is the ability to facilitate private IP address communication between different virtual networks. When two virtual networks are peered, they can communicate with each other directly using their respective private IP addresses as if they were part of the same network. This enables resources in either virtual network to interact seamlessly without the need for routing traffic over the public internet or requiring a VPN or other gateways. Private IP communication is essential in scenarios where applications or services deployed in different VNets need to work together securely and efficiently. This approach helps in minimizing latency and maximizing throughput while ensuring that traffic stays within Azure's backbone network. While network security groups, route tables, and VPN gateways are important elements of Azure networking, their roles differ from the core functionality of VNet peering, which is fundamentally about enabling seamless and secure communication between virtual networks.
