az network manages Azure Network resources including virtual networks, DNS zones, load balancers, application gateways, VPN gateways, ExpressRoute circuits, and network security groups.
Azure networking provides the foundation for cloud infrastructure, enabling secure connectivity between Azure resources, on-premises environments, and the internet.

Virtual Networks

vnet create, vnet delete, vnet list, vnet show, vnet subnet

dns zone create, dns zone list, dns record-set a, dns record-set cname, dns record-set mx

lb create, lb delete, lb list, lb rule, lb probe, cross-region-lb

application-gateway create, application-gateway delete, application-gateway start, application-gateway stop

nsg create, nsg rule, asg create, ddos-protection

express-route, vpn-gateway, bastion, nat gateway, public-ip

Many network resources have dependencies; for example, deleting a virtual network requires removing all associated subnets and connected resources first. DNS record changes may take time to propagate globally. Application gateways incur charges even when stopped; delete unused gateways.

Azure Virtual Network was one of the earliest Azure services, launching with Azure's general availability in 2010. The networking capabilities have expanded significantly to include Azure DNS (2015), Application Gateway, ExpressRoute, and advanced security features.
