Core Concepts

A series of sequential labs to take you through the basic concepts of Azure Networking.

Introduction

These labs are pulled from Binal Shah’s repo, https://github.com/binals/azurenetworking.

They have been used to help customers get up to speed with the basics of Azure Networking.

Labs

Using the Azure CLI

Use the CLI commands to create a vNet, a VM and then attach an NSG to a subnet.

Virtual Network Peering

Connect two isolated vNets using vNet Peering and validate routing and connectivity.

Transitive Behaviour

Understand the implications of transitive peering.

NVA CSR1000v

Deploy a Cisco network virtual appliance from the Azure Marketplace.

Routing Tables

Understand how Azure routes traffic in a virtual network and how user defined routes can be used to change the default behaviour.
