Source network address translation (SNAT) is no longer required for private endpoint destined traffic passing through a network virtual appliance (NVA). You can now configure a tag on your NVA VMs to notify the Microsoft platform that you wish to opt into this feature. This means SNATing is no longer be necessary for private endpoint destined traffic traversing through your NVA.

Enabling this feature provides a more streamlined experience for guaranteeing symmetric routing without affecting nonprivate endpoint traffic. It also allows you to follow internal compliance standards where the source of traffic origination needs to be available during logging. This feature is available in all regions.

The type of NVA you're using determines how to disable SNAT for private endpoint traffic passing through the NVA. For the virtual machine, you add a tag on the Network interface (NIC). On the virtual machine scale set (VMSS) you enable the tag on the VMSS instance.
