Course content

1 section5 lectures2h 21m total length
  • About VNet Connectivity7:51

    Explore how Azure VNet connectivity enables private, internet-free communication between virtual networks using private IP addresses, VNet peering, and gateways, including point-to-site, site-to-site, and ExpressRoute options.

  • Quiz 1
  • Point to Site VPN Connection41:07

    Configure a point-to-site vpn to connect clients to an Azure vnet via a vpn gateway, using server and client certificates to establish an ikev2 or openvpn tunnel for private ip.

  • Quiz 2
  • VNet to VNet VPN Connection24:11

    Learn to configure VNet to VNet connections and compare them with VNet peering, including gateways, shared keys, and site-to-site implications for seamless inter-VNet connectivity.

  • Quiz 3
  • VNet Peering Connection41:18

    Explore how vnet peering, including global vnet peering, provides private, low-latency connectivity over the Azure backbone, replacing VPN gateway for cross-region, two-way pairings with address-space rules.

  • Quiz 4
  • Hub and Spoke Model26:52

    Explore the hub and spoke model by linking a hub virtual network to multiple spokes via peering and transit, and enable spoke-to-spoke connectivity with a virtual appliance and route tables.

  • Quiz 5

Requirements

Description

This course provides a focused and practical explanation of Azure Virtual Network (VNet) connectivity options, a critical topic for anyone working with Azure networking and cloud infrastructure.

You will start by understanding the fundamentals of Azure VNet connectivity, including why connectivity is required, how Azure networks communicate, and how different connectivity options are used in real-world architectures. The course then explores each Azure connectivity option in detail, helping you understand when to use each one.

You will learn how Point-to-Site VPN connections enable secure remote access for individual users and how VNet-to-VNet VPN connections allow communication between multiple Azure virtual networks. The course also explains VNet Peering, one of the most commonly used connectivity methods for low-latency, high-performance network communication within Azure.

In addition, you will learn about the Hub-and-Spoke network model, a widely adopted architecture for enterprise environments that enables centralized connectivity, shared services, and improved network management. The course explains the purpose, design principles, and scenarios where this model is most effective.

Each topic is delivered through clear and concise video lessons, followed by practice tests to help you validate your understanding and reinforce key concepts. By the end of this course, you will have a strong understanding of Azure virtual network connectivity options and be able to choose the right approach based on real-world requirements.

Who this course is for:

  • Azure administrators and cloud engineers
  • IT professionals working with Azure networking
  • Students learning Microsoft Azure infrastructure
  • AZ-104 exam candidates focusing on networking topics
  • Anyone who wants to understand Azure VNet connectivity options
