Overview of this book

Microsoft provides organizations with an effective way of managing their network with Azure's networking services. No matter the size of your organization, Azure provides a way to highly reliable performance and secure connectivity with its networking services. The book starts with an introduction to the Azure networking like creating Azure virtual networks, designing address spaces and subnets. Then you will learn to create and manage network security groups, application security groups, and IP addresses in Azure. Gradually, we move on to various aspects like S2S, P2S, and Vnet2Vnet connections, DNS and routing, load balancers and traffic manager. This book will cover every aspect and function required to deliver practical recipes to help readers learn from basic cloud networking practices to planning, implementing, and securing their infrastructure network with Azure. Readers will not only be able to upscale their current environment but will also learn to monitor, diagnose, and ensure secure connectivity. After learning to deliver a robust environment readers will also gain meaningful insights from recipes on best practices. By the end of this book, readers will gain hands-on experience in providing cost-effective solutions that benefit organizations.

Traffic Manager

An Azure load balancer is limited to providing high availability and scalability only to Azure virtual machines. Also, single load balancer is limited to VMs in a single Azure region. If we want to provide the same thing to other Azure services that are globally distributed , we must introduce a new component—Azure Traffic Manager. Azure Traffic Manager is DNS-based and provides the ability to distribute traffic over services and spread traffic across Azure regions. But Traffic Manager is not limited to Azure services only; we can add external endpoints as well.

We will cover the following recipes in this chapter:

Creating a new Traffic Manager profile
Adding an endpoint
Configuring distributed traffic
Configuring traffic based on priority
Configuring traffic based on geographical location
Managing an endpoint
