Name Resolution Between VMs in Different Virtual Networks

This section covers the name resolution between VMs in different virtual networks.

1. VM1-06 present in West US Vnet 6 needs to communicate with VM1-05 present in Vnet 5 for SSH connection. The hostname of the VMs needs to be mapped to an IP address not yet known to other VM.

2. As the DNS server configured for this VNet is DNS Forwarder IP, the request will go to DNS Forwarder VM for the resolution which in turn will forward the request to Azure private DNS (Register the names of the VMs as explained in the previous section). Azure DNS will return the IP of VM1-05.

3. VM1-06 will use the IP address of VM1-05 for SSH connection.
