Generally Available: Azure Virtual Network Manager mesh and direct connectivity

Azure Virtual Network Manager mesh connectivity configuration, direct connectivity in the hub, and spoke connectivity configuration are generally available in all public regions. Visit the connectivity configuration documentation to learn more about Azure Virtual Network Manager’s connectivity configuration.

This feature allows a group of virtual networks to directly communicate with each other without an additional hop, thus improving the latency and management overhead of connectivity of each virtual network. For example, you can use this feature to let a subset of the spoke virtual networks that require low latency in hub and spoke topology to directly communicate to each other. The traffic between these virtual networks can be filtered using network security groups and Azure Virtual Network Manager’s security admin rules while maintaining direct connectivity. To learn more about security admin rules and their use cases, please see the documentations on security admin rule concepts.

Additionally, the traffic can be monitored using VNet flow logs. For further information on VNet flow logs, refer to the virtual network flow logs documentation.
