Explore Azure virtual networking fundamentals, including subnets, network security groups, IP addressing (public and private, static and dynamic), NICs, VMs, load balancers, DNS, and site-to-site VPN.
This course provides a focused and practical learning path to understand and manage Azure Virtual Networking, a core skill required for the AZ-104 Azure Administrator role.
You will start with essential cloud computing fundamentals, including cloud characteristics, service models, and deployment models, to build a strong foundation before working with Azure networking concepts. The course then introduces Microsoft Azure, its hosting models, and key Azure services to help you understand how networking fits into the overall Azure ecosystem.
As the course progresses, you will dive deep into Azure Virtual Networking, beginning with virtual networks, subnets, and IP addressing concepts. You will learn how to create and configure VNets, associate subnets, apply Network Security Groups (NSGs), and understand how virtual machines communicate securely within a network.
The course also covers important Azure networking components such as Azure Load Balancer, Availability Sets, Application Gateway, and Traffic Manager, helping you understand how Azure handles high availability, load distribution, and traffic routing. In addition, you will learn how to configure Point-to-Site VPN connections to enable secure remote access.
Each topic is explained through structured video lessons that focus on real-world Azure administration scenarios. Practice tests are included to help you assess your understanding and reinforce key networking concepts required for the AZ-104 exam and day-to-day Azure administration tasks.
By the end of this course, you will be confident in configuring, managing, and troubleshooting Azure virtual networks in real-world environments.
