Answer 2

Hi Akash,

Just to add to what Vikas mentioned (if you are new to Azure PowerShell) you will need to install the necessary module (run PowerShell as Administrator):

Install-Module -Name Az -Scope CurrentUser -Repository PSGallery -Force

You will also need to:

Connect-AzAccount

Then run

New-AzVm `
    -ResourceGroupName 'myResourceGroup' `
    -Name 'myVM' `
    -Location 'East US' `
    -Image 'MicrosoftWindowsServer:WindowsServer:2022-datacenter-azure-edition:latest' `
    -VirtualNetworkName 'myVnet' `
    -SubnetName 'mySubnet' `
    -SecurityGroupName 'myNetworkSecurityGroup' `
    -PublicIpAddressName 'myPublicIpAddress' `
    -OpenPorts 80,3389
