  • 15 minutes

Lab scenario

Your organization is migrating network infrastructure and virtual machines to Azure. As the Azure Administrator you need to:

  • Configure Azure virtual networks and subnets.
  • Connect remotely to Azure virtual machines by using RDP.
  • Verify virtual machines in the same virtual network can communicate.

Objectives

  • Task 1: Create a virtual network.
    • Create a virtual network, vnet1, with an IP address space of 10.1.0.0/16.
    • Create a subnet, default, with an IP address space of 10.1.0.0/24.
  • Task 2: Create two virtual machines.
    • Create a virtual machine, vm1, in vnet1 and allow inbound RDP.
    • Create a second virtual machine, vm2, in vnet1 and allow inbound RDP.
    • Ensure both virtual machines are deployed and running before continuing.
  • Task 3: Test the virtual machine connections.
    • Connect to vm1 with RDP.
    • Connect to vm2 with RDP.
    • Disable the public and private Windows Firewall on both virtual machines.
    • Use Azure PowerShell to confirm vm1 can ping vm2.
