How does a public IP address enable internet connectivity for Azure resources?

Question

Thamimul ansari · Accepted Answer

A public IP address enables internet connectivity by providing a unique, routable address for Azure resources to send and receive traffic from the internet. It allows external services to initiate connections to Azure services, such as a virtual machine or load balancer. When a resource is not assigned a dedicated public IP, Azure still enables outbound internet connectivity by automatically using Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) to a predictable public IP, which can change over time.
