Design and Implement Cross-VNet Connectivity

The main purpose of an Azure Virtual Network (Azure VNet) is to facilitate the delivery of data between point A (an Azure VNet workload) and point B (other connected systems). Sometimes, point B is a workload in another Azure VNet.

In this chapter, we will cover the options that we have to connect workloads in different Azure VNets together. By the end of this chapter, you will have a strong understanding of the following:

  • Connecting VNets using VNet peering
  • Connecting VNets using a VPN gateway connection
  • Connecting VNets using a virtual WAN (vWan)

Each topic has been structured to align with the recommended network connectivity best practices in Azure. Let us get into this!

The following are the main topics that we will cover in this chapter:

  • Understanding cross-VNet connectivity
  • Connecting VNets using VNet peering
  • Connecting VNets using a VPN gateway connection
  • Connecting VNets using a vWAN...
