In the event you'll need the public IP address to be available to route internally, the [Public IP Prefix can be added to the VNET](../how-to-multiple-prefixes-subnet.md), and then assigned to the Virtual Machine as an IP address from a subnet that the VM participates in. | Standard load balancers | Associating public IPs from a prefix to your frontend IP configuration or outbound rule of a load balancer ensures simplification of your Azure public IP address space. Simplify your scenario by grooming outbound connections from a range of contiguous IP addresses. | To associate IPs from a prefix to your load balancer:
1. [Create a prefix.](manage-public-ip-address-prefix.md)
2. [Create an IP from the prefix.](manage-public-ip-address-prefix.md)
3. When creating the load balancer, select or update the IP created in step 2 above as the frontend IP of your load balancer. | | Azure Firewall | You can use a public IP from a prefix for outbound SNAT. All outbound virtual network traffic is translated to the [Azure Firewall](../../firewall/overview.md?toc=%2fazure%2fvirtual-network%2ftoc.json) public IP. | To associate an IP from a prefix to your firewall:
