Design and implement a virtual network in Azure, creating core services VNets across multiple geographies, configuring subnets and IP ranges, and enabling peering in the Azure portal.
Create and configure a virtual network gateway to connect two VNets with a site-to-site VPN, including gateway subnets. Demonstrate deployment with PowerShell and Cloud Shell, and test connectivity via RDP.
Explore Azure ExpressRoute design and deployment, including private peering and VPN integration, various connectivity models from cloud exchange to direct, with high bandwidth, redundancy, and global reach.
Learn how to connect an Azure ExpressRoute circuit to a VNet by adding a virtual network connection, configuring the gateway, and validating the peering.
Connect geographically dispersed networks using ExpressRoute Global Reach to link multiple ExpressRoute circuits across geopolitical regions. Configure private peering, enable global reach, and connect on-premises networks via the Azure backbone.
Explore expressroute fastpath to improve data path performance between on premises networks and virtual networks by bypassing the gateway, increasing packets per second and connections per second.
Demonstrate deploying an Azure application gateway, creating a resource group and VNet, configuring front-end public IP, backend pool, routing rule, and two IIS web servers behind the gateway.
Configure DDoS protection on a virtual network in azure, create a DDoS protection plan, enable telemetry, and set up diagnostic logs and monitoring for insights.
Deploy and configure Azure network security groups to control inbound and outbound traffic for VNet subnets and interfaces, using default rules, priorities, and application security groups.
Explore designing and implementing Azure Bastion to securely connect to virtual machines via the portal, without exposing port 3389, using a bastion subnet, TLS tunneling, and role-based access control.
Implement a web application firewall with Azure Application Gateway and Front Door for centralized OWASP protection. Configure WAF policies, switch between detection and prevention, and create custom and managed rules.
Demonstrates restricting network access to a storage account via a private virtual network, service endpoints, network security groups, and a private subnet, using the Azure portal and virtual machine access.
Learn to monitor an internal load balancer with Azure Monitor, configure front and back end, health probes, and logging, using deployment files and a test virtual machine in a lab.
