Information
In Cloud Services Management, it is assumed that operation is performed while connected to a network on a public cloud, and that the network is in a company which uses a dedicated line or an Internet VPN (Virtual Private Network). Therefore, access of a virtual machine on a public cloud from a company network uses a private IP address, not a global IP address.
