Nutanix Exam NCP-CI-Azure Topic 4 Question 2 Discussion

NAT Based Network: A NAT-based network is designed to provide inbound and outbound internet access while obscuring the internal private addresses. This setup uses Network Address Translation (NAT) to map internal IP addresses to a public IP address, ensuring that internal addresses are not exposed to the public internet.

Security and Connectivity: NAT provides a layer of security by hiding internal IP addresses and allowing controlled access to external resources. This configuration is well-suited for VMs that need to communicate with servers on the public internet while maintaining the privacy of their internal network addresses.
