What IP address I can not get it from Azure subnet CIDR to azure resource(s)?

What? Will I not be able to get some IP(s) from subnet?

How many IP(s) I am not able to get and what are they and why?

Azure Virtual Network is one of the main service from azure to create private network in cloud. subnet is the main part of Vnet for segregation. while creating a subnet we have to define CIDR.

If I create /24 mask subnet, I should get 256 IP(s) but why am I not getting 256 fully for my resources. I can get only 251 IP(s) because azure reserves 5 IPs from every subnet.

consider I'm creating a subnet called DMZ with subnet/cidr range as 10.1.2.0/24 and I'm going to get IP(s) from 10.1.2.4, 10.1.2.5, 10.1.2.6.......10.1.2.254 and please look into the below table for the reason and IP why they are not able to assign to user created azure resources.

IP Purpose
10.1.2.0 Network address
10.1.2.1 Reserved by Azure for the default gateway
10.1.2.2, 10.1.2.3 Reserved by Azure to map the Azure DNS IPs to the VNet space
10.1.2.255 Network broadcast address

Azure Public IP(s) are zone redundant free of cost natively - Generally Available Availability zone gives high availability to an application as well as information by forestalling the physical datacenter disappointments by involving replication of the asset in extra datacenter. Azure typically has 3 zones per region (and not all regions support zone). Thus, while setting up the environment we really want to pick the right region based on our usecase. Public IP helps to access a resource or an application publicly. Azure offers 2 types of SKU for public IP as below Basic Standard Only Standard SKU gives zone facility. Basic SKU is always non-zonal and this SKU also will be retired 09/2025. Standard public IP can be fell into any of the below category No Zone / Non-Zonal - No availability zone at all Zonal - Our services can be replicated in any one of selected zones from three zones. Zone redundant - Resource will be replicated in all 3 zones. It is opposite of...
