# Create a private cluster with Azure Red Hat OpenShift 3.11

Private clusters provide the following benefits:

* Private clusters don't expose cluster control plane components (such as the API servers) on a public IP address.
* The virtual network of a private cluster is configurable by customers, allowing you to set up networking to allow peering with other virtual networks, including ExpressRoute environments. You can also configure custom DNS on the virtual network to integrate with internal services.

A private cluster can be deployed using the sample scripts provided below. Once the cluster is deployed, execute the `cluster get` command and view the `properties.FQDN` property to determine the private IP address of the OpenShift API server.

The cluster virtual network will have been created with permissions so that you can modify it. You can then set up networking to access the virtual network (ExpressRoute, VPN, virtual network peering) as required for your needs.

If you change the DNS nameservers on the cluster virtual network, then you will need to issue an update on the cluster with the `properties.RefreshCluster` property set to `true` so that the VMs can be reimaged. This update will allow them to pick up the new nameservers.
