Tutorial: Inspect private endpoint traffic with Azure Firewall

  • आलेख

Azure Private Endpoint is the fundamental building block for Azure Private Link. Private endpoints enable Azure resources deployed in a virtual network to communicate privately with private link resources.

Private endpoints allow resources access to the private link service deployed in a virtual network. Access to the private endpoint through virtual network peering and on-premises network connections extend the connectivity.

You may need to inspect or block traffic from clients to the services exposed via private endpoints. Complete this inspection by using Azure Firewall or a third-party network virtual appliance.

For more information and scenarios that involve private endpoints and Azure Firewall, see Azure Firewall scenarios to inspect traffic destined to a private endpoint.

In this tutorial, you learn how to:

  • Create a virtual network and bastion host for the test virtual machine.
  • Create the private endpoint virtual network.
  • Create a test virtual machine.
  • Deploy Azure Firewall.
  • Create an Azure SQL database.
  • Create a private endpoint for Azure SQL.
  • Create a network peer between the private endpoint virtual network and the test virtual machine virtual network.
  • Link the virtual networks to a private DNS zone.
  • Configure application rules in Azure Firewall for Azure SQL.
  • Route traffic between the test virtual machine and Azure SQL through Azure Firewall.
  • Test the connection to Azure SQL and validate in Azure Firewall logs.

Create a virtual network and an Azure Bastion host

The following procedure creates a virtual network with a resource subnet, an Azure Bastion subnet, and a Bastion host:

  1. In the portal, search for and select Virtual networks.

  2. On the Virtual networks page, select + Create.

  3. On the Basics tab of Create virtual network, enter, or select the following information:

    Setting Value
    Project details
    Subscription Select your subscription.

  4. Select Next to proceed to the Security tab.

  5. In the Azure Bastion section, select Enable Azure Bastion.

    Bastion uses your browser to connect to VMs in your virtual network over Secure Shell (SSH) or Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) by using their private IP addresses. The VMs don't need public IP addresses, client software, or special configuration. For more information, see What is Azure Bastion?.

    Note

    Hourly pricing starts from the moment that Bastion is deployed, regardless of outbound data usage. For more information, see Pricing and SKUs. If you're deploying Bastion as part of a tutorial or test, we recommend that you delete this resource after you finish using it.

  6. In Azure Bastion, enter or select the following information:

    Setting Value
    Azure Bastion host name Enter bastion.
    Azure Bastion public IP address Select Create a public IP address.
    Enter public-ip-bastion in Name.
    Select OK.

  6. Leave the rest of the settings at the defaults and select Review + create.

  7. Review the settings and select Create.

Note

Virtual machines in a virtual network with a bastion host don't need public IP addresses. Bastion provides the public IP, and the VMs use private IPs to communicate within the network. You can remove the public IPs from any VMs in bastion hosted virtual networks. For more information, see Dissociate a public IP address from an Azure VM.

Note

Azure provides a default outbound access IP for VMs that either aren't assigned a public IP address or are in the backend pool of an internal basic Azure load balancer. The default outbound access IP mechanism provides an outbound IP address that isn't configurable.

The default outbound access IP is disabled when one of the following events happens:

  • A public IP address is assigned to the VM.
  • The VM is placed in the backend pool of a standard load balancer, with or without outbound rules.
  • An Azure NAT Gateway resource is assigned to the subnet of the VM.

VMs that you create by using virtual machine scale sets in flexible orchestration mode don't have default outbound access.

For more information about outbound connections in Azure, see Default outbound access in Azure and Use Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) for outbound connections.

  7. Install the SQL server command line tools from Install the SQL Server command-line tools sqlcmd and bcp on Linux. Proceed with the next steps after the installation is complete.

  8. Use the following commands to connect to the SQL server you created in the previous steps.

    • Replace <server-admin> with the admin username you entered during the SQL server creation.

    • Replace <admin-password> with the admin password you entered during SQL server creation.

    • Replace server-name with the name of your SQL server.

  4. In the example Queries in the search box, enter Application rule. In the returned results in Network, select the Run button for Application rule log data.

  5. In the log query output, verify server-name.database.windows.net is listed under FQDN and SQLPrivateEndpoint is listed under Rule.

When you finish using the resources that you created, you can delete the resource group and all its resources.

  1. In the Azure portal, search for and select Resource groups.

  2. On the Resource groups page, select the test-rg resource group.

  3. On the test-rg page, select Delete resource group.

  4. Enter test-rg in Enter resource group name to confirm deletion, and then select Delete.
