Connect 2 virtual machines

Hi Everyone,

I have been super curious about virtual machines and how they work. Not to mention that I’m totally brand new in this therefore I’m a bit lost. I managed to create a VM in Azure running Microsoft Server 2016 and installed Active Directory Domain Controller. In order to test this server properly, I was wondering if it’s possible to create another VM with Windows 7 or 10 to simulate the user? Is there a way to link these 2 VM?

Sorry if this is very silly question. Just super new and lots of things don’t make sense yet.

Thanks very much!

Miguel.

    My two cents; I think you'll probably have more luck starting out with a local hypervisor and guests for testing. Especially if this is all new, no need to tackle azure intricacies at the same time.
