***Load-balancing rules** - A load balancer rule is used to define how incoming traffic is distributed to the **all** the instances within the backend pool. A load-balancing rule maps a given frontend IP configuration and port to multiple backend IP addresses and ports. An example would be a rule created on port 80 to load balance web traffic.

***High availability ports** - A load balancer rule configured with **protocol - all** and **port - 0**. These rules enable a single rule to load-balance all TCP and UDP traffic that arrive on all ports of an internal standard load balancer. The HA ports load-balancing rules help you with scenarios, such as high availability and scale for network virtual appliances (NVAs) inside virtual networks. The feature can help when a large number of ports must be load-balanced.

***Inbound NAT rule** - An inbound NAT rule forwards incoming traffic sent to frontend IP address and port combination. The traffic is sent to a **specific** virtual machine or instance in the backend pool. Port forwarding is done by the same hash-based distribution as load balancing.
