Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
An Azure virtual machine cannot access the internet. You verify that the virtual machine is running and the network interface is attached to a subnet with a route to the internet. What should you check next to troubleshoot the issue?
Ensure the virtual machine is in an availability set
Verify that the Network Security Group allows outbound internet traffic
Assign a public IP address to the network interface
Network Security Groups (NSGs) control network traffic in and out of Azure resources. If an Azure virtual machine cannot access the internet despite having a valid route, you should check the NSG rules to ensure that outbound internet traffic is allowed. Assigning a public IP address is not required for outbound internet connectivity because Azure provides default outbound access using a default NAT. Placing the virtual machine in an availability set does not affect its networking capabilities. Restarting the virtual machine may not resolve network configuration issues caused by security rules.
