Deployed into private subnet, where it acts as a managed forwarding router. Traffic can be routed using User Defined Routes (UDR) enabling spoke to spoke communication in traditional Hub & Spoke topologies.  

Configured as Azure resource, integrates seamlessly with Azure’s management and governance model.
