In infrastructure, there are many reasons for allowing traffic between virtual networks such as application requirements, backup/DR requirements, replication requirements and so on. If it is internal networks, we can do this using inter-VLAN routing. If it is between networks in different physical locations, we can do it using VPN & Firewalls.
If it is Azure, how we can allow traffic…
OpenVPN is an open-source VPN protocol that is trusted by many cloud service providers to provide site-to-site, point-to-site, and point-to-point connectivity to cloud resources. Now Azure AD authentication also works with OpenVPN protocol. This means we can use Azure AD features such as conditional access, user-based policies, Azure MFA with VPN authentication.

If we need to set up a connection between two independent networks (not between VLANs), we have to use a virtual private network (VPN) connections. In Azure, we use VNets to create private networks. If we need to communicate between two VNets, we have to use one of the following methods,
• VNet-to-VNet Connection – The communication happens between two VPN gateways. This is easy to set…
