This is a supplement guide to ‘Microsoft Cloud Workshop - Enterprise Class Networking ’, to be used when you are delivering a hands-on-lab session using Cloud Labs AI platform from Spektra Systems. If you have any questions, please reach out to [email protected]
Students will learn how to setup and configure a Virtual Network with Subnets in Azure. Students will also learn how to secure the Virtual Network with Firewall rules and route tables. Additionally, students will set up access to the Virtual Network with a "jump box" and a Site-to-Site VPN connection.
- Users can use the Azure Credentials given to them to login to the Azure Portal
- Verify seven resource groups.
- Resource Group ODL_ecn-29907-LabVMRG will be already created in the users Azure Environment with the LABVM deployed in it.
- LABVM has been configured with the following:
- IE Enhanced Security has been disabled
- Support files are downloaded into the directory C:\ECN-Hackathon
- Azure PowerShell
- Users can select LABVM and click on Connect to download the RDP file
- Open the RDP file to connect to the LABVM. Provide the credentials you received to login to the VM
- Once you login to the LABVM, server manager will open. Select Local Server and verify that IE Enhanced Security Configuration has also been turned off
- Now, go to C:\ECN-Hackathon directory and verify the student files are there
Open a browser instance in private or incognito mode and login to Microsoft Azure Portal using the credentials provided.
Note: You might have an existing Azure Credential. For the pre-provisioned environment, new Microsoft Azure environment is provisioned and new AAD user is created for you. To prevent conflict with your existing accounts, it is advised to use In Private mode of IE / IE Edge or Incognito mode of Chrome browser.
You are provided a Visual Studio Community 2017 on Windows Server 2016 (x64)Microsoft with additional softwares configured. FQDN of the LABVM virtual machine and administrator credentials are provided in the lab details page. You can remote into the virtual machine using the provided credentials.
- Resource Group ODL-enc-29907-LabVMRG having LABVM. User will not deply anything in this resource group. 29907 is unique for each user and will very for each user.
- As users doesn't have permissions to create new resource group. They should choose existing resource groups as all the resouce groups have already created.
- Each resource group have prefix ODL_ecn-29907-,
- Ex: In Task 1 of Exercise 1, choose existing RG ODL-enc-29907-WGVNetRG1 instead of creating new RG to deploy virtual network WGVNet1. Use similar for other RGs.
- Make sure to deploy all Resources in RG location Ex: If resource group is in West US then deploy virtual network in West US only.
- In Task 1 of Exercise 2, use existing RG ODL-enc-29907-WGVNetRG2 instead of creating new RG to deploy virtual network WGVNet2.
- Make sure to deploy all Resources in RG location Ex: If resource group is in West US then deploy virtual network in West US only.
- In Task 1 of Exercise 4, use existing RG ODL_ecn-29907-WGVMRGTMT instead of creating new RG to deploy template n-tier application
- Edit following template parameters values:
- existingVirtualNetworkName: WGVNet2
- existingVirtualNetworkResourceGroup: ODL_ecn-29907-WGVNetRG2, 29907 will very with each user.
- In Task 1 of Exercise 5, choose existing RG ODL_ecn-29907-WGMGMTRG instead of creating new RG to deploy management VM Windows Server 2016 Datacenter. Use Standard F1S size for virtual machine inthis step.
- In Task 1 of Exercise 7, choose existing RG ODL_ecn-29907-baracudafw instead of creating new RG to deploy cloudgen firewall for azure BYOL (VM)
- In Task 1 of Exercise 9, choose existing RG ODL_ecn-29907-OnPremVNet instead of creating new RG to deploy on-prem virtual network
- Deploy On-prem Virtual Network in different region region istead of using RG location.
- Users should use the Azure Credentials given to them to login to Visual Studio
If you require any help during the workshop, please reach out to the instructor / proctors. Instructors / proctors might escalate the issue to remote support team, at that time, please pass on your AAD User ID (aad_user_xyz), so that it is easier to look up your environment.
