Azure Networking Cookbook

Virtual Machine Networking

In this chapter, we'll cover Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) and the network interface that is used as an interconnection between Azure VMs and Azure Virtual Network.

We will cover the following recipes in this chapter:

  • Creating Azure VMs
  • Viewing VM network settings
  • Creating a new network interface
  • Attaching a network interface to a VM
  • Detaching a network interface from a VM

Technical requirements

For this chapter, the following is required:

  • An Azure subscription

Creating Azure VMs

Azure VMs depend on virtual networking, and during the creation process, we need to define the network settings.

Getting ready

How to do it...

In order to create a new VM using the Azure portal, we must use the following steps:

  1. In the Azure portal, select Create a resource and choose Windows Server 2016 VM (or search for any VM image under the Compute section).
  2. In the Create a virtual machine blade, we need to provide information for various options; not all...

Viewing VM network settings

After an Azure VM is created, we can review the network settings in the VM blade.

Getting ready

Before you start, open a web browser and go to the Azure portal at https://portal.azure.com. Here, locate the previously created VM.

How to do it...

In order to review the VM network settings, we must do the following steps:

  1. In the VM blade, locate the Networking settings. Here, you can see Network interface, APPLICATION SECURITY GROUPS, and Network security group associated with the VM. An example of this is shown in the following screenshot:
...

Creating a new network interface

A network interface is usually created during the VM creation process, but each VM can have multiple network interfaces. Based on this, we can create an NIC as an individual resource and attach it or detach it as needed.

Getting ready

How to do it...

In order to create a new NIC using the Azure portal, we must use the following steps:

  1. In the Azure portal, select Create a resource and choose Network interface under Networking services (or search...

Attaching a network interface to a VM

Each VM can have multiple network interfaces. Because of this, we can add a new network interface at any time.

Getting ready

Before you start, open a web browser and go to the Azure portal at https://portal.azure.com. Here, locate the previously created VM.

How to do it...

To attach a network interface to a VM, we must do the following:

  1. In the VM blade, make sure the VM is stopped (that is, deallocated).
  2. Locate the Networking settings in the VM blade.
  3. At the top of the Networking settings screen in the VM blade, select the option...

Detaching a network interface from a VM

Just as with attaching a network interface, we can detach network interface at any time and attach it to another VM.

Getting ready

Before you start, open a web browser and got to the Azure portal at https://portal.azure.com. Here, locate the previously created VM.

How to do it...

To detach a network interface from a VM, we must do the following:

  1. In the VM blade, make sure the VM is stopped (that is, deallocated).
  2. Locate the Networking settings in the VM blade.
  3. In the top of Networking settings screen in the VM blade, select the...

The book is very easy to read with step-by-step instruction and full of figures. In the book, you'll be creating VM, VNet, Submet, NIC, NSG, ASG, VPN, Point-2-Site, Site-2-Site, VNet-2-Vnet, Load Balancers, DNS, Route Table, Traffic Manager, Application Gateway, WAF and Azure Firewall. Each resource is created in two ways - Azure Portal and PowerShell.The reason I deduct one star is although you create a lot of services, you do not validate or test any of those. The book basically shows you how you create those services individually but it doesn't show you how to tie those services together as demo project(s). Another minor thing is the book uses old AzureRM module instead of new Az module.Overall, this is the first book to read for those who are new to Azure IaaS and make yourself familiar with those services.

The PDF is offered for a free download by Microsoft (Google it).Not a bad book, but extremely verbose for the very simple scenarios it presents. One single example: it takes 18 pages to present how you can create/assign/unassign/remove public/private IPs, with really trivial operations. Through an Azure portal GUI that already changed (as expected) within one single year. Or with PowerShell commands that you must be really specialized on to learn by heart.I would have loved by far some common sense simple visual diagrams, with the relationships between these network objects in Azure.
