Terms in this definition
- AGDLP
Nesting pattern: users go into global groups, which go into domain local groups, which receive the permissions. AGUDLP adds universal groups for forests with several domains.
- Virtual network peering
Connects VNets privately with low latency across the Microsoft backbone, whether in different regions, subscriptions or tenants or not. Because it is non-transitive, spokes sharing a hub need direct peering, or UDRs through a hub firewall or NVA, to talk.
