Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
An administrator has established a virtual network peering connection between two Azure virtual networks, VNet-A and VNet-B. How is the network traffic between virtual machines in these two virtual networks handled?
It is sent over the public internet.
It is directed through the nearest public Azure Load Balancer.
It is routed through a mandatory VPN Gateway.
It is routed privately over the Microsoft Azure backbone.
When virtual network peering is established, traffic between the peered networks is routed directly and privately over the Microsoft Azure backbone. It does not traverse the public internet, which provides significant security and performance benefits. A VPN Gateway is a different component used for other connectivity scenarios, like site-to-site connections or VNet-to-VNet connections that require encryption, but it is not part of the standard VNet peering path. Traffic is not sent over the public internet. An Azure Load Balancer is used to distribute traffic to a set of backend resources, not to route traffic between distinct virtual networks.
