Which Azure resource is blocking network connections?

You have deployed a virtual machine running the Linux operating system to the Azure cloud. But when you try to establish an SSH connection to the virtual machine, the connection fails. You discover that the Azure network infrastructure is blocking the connection.

Which Azure resource is blocking the network connection to your virtual machine?

Choose the correct answer from the options below.

Please select at least one answer!

Congratulations, you are correct!

I'm sorry, your answer is not correct.

The Network Security Group (NSG) is correct
The Virtual Network (Vnet) is incorrect. A virtual network is a virtual representation of a network. Vnets do not include a firewall and cannot be used to block network connections.
The Subnet is incorrect. A subnet is a partition of a virtual network. It cannot block network connections on its own, but it can host an NSG that can block connections.
The Virtual Network Adapter (NIC) is incorrect. A NIC is a virtual network adapter for a virtual machine. It cannot block network connections on its own, but it can host an NSG that can block connections.
