An OSPF neighbor is another router that has been directly discovered through OSPF Hello packets and is willing to exchange routing information to build a network topology map.
Term 364
OSPF network type defines how the Open Shortest Path First routing protocol operates on a given interface, determining neighbor discovery, adjacency formation, and the election of designated routers.
Term 365
An Outbound ACL is a set of rules applied to traffic leaving a network interface that decides which packets are allowed to exit and which are blocked.

Term 374
A policy definition is a formal rule or set of rules that specifies allowed or denied actions on resources within an IT environment, often used for governance, compliance, and security control.
Term 375
Policy enforcement is the process of implementing and ensuring compliance with defined security rules and configurations across an IT environment.
Term 376
Policy inheritance is the mechanism by which policies applied to a parent container in a hierarchical system automatically apply to all child objects within that container, unless explicitly blocked or overridden.
Term 377
Port security is a network switch feature that restricts which devices can connect to a port based on the device's MAC address, preventing unauthorized access.
Term 378

Term 385
A private IP address is a non-internet-routable address used within a local network to identify devices and allow them to communicate with each other without direct exposure to the public internet.
Term 386
Private Link is a technology that lets you connect your virtual network to a service over a private, secure connection inside the cloud provider's infrastructure, instead of going over the public internet.
Term 387
A private subnet is a segmented portion of a cloud or on-premises network that is not directly accessible from the public internet, used to host internal resources securely.
