Azure Virtual Networks (Vnet)

• Refer Here for official docs
• Azure virtual networks is a service offered by Microsoft Azure to manage networks
• Azure Virtual Network is a private network.
• If we need to connect any resources to the network, we need to have subnet.
• In the case of virtual machine, subnets and vm are connected via network interface (nic). This nic gets a private ip address from subnet range
  
• By default azure vnets will have internet connectivity
• If your network interface (vm) needs to be accesed directly from internet, we can create a public ip and attach to the nic.

• In Azure there are no default networks, you can use what is present in your account or create a new network
