Summary

This chapter focused on securing the internet traffic from your AVS environment. While there are multiple options for doing so, the focus was on using a secured virtual WAN to secure the internet traffic.

Using a vWAN is one of the most common scenarios that customers use. Many customers already have a vWAN in their Azure environment and creating a new connection from the AVS environment is very straightforward.

You learned how to configure the different elements of a virtual WAN and how to make it secure using Azure Firewall.

In the next chapter, we will focus on implementing a network virtual appliance (NVA) for internet traffic inspection for your AVS environment. You will learn some critical reasons to ensure the traffic is inspected. You will also learn how to deploy and configure an Azure Route Server to integrate with the virtual network appliance.
