Hi Azure friends,
I used the PowerShell ISE for this configuration. But you are also very welcome to use Visual Studio Code, just as you wish. Please start with the following steps to begin the deployment (the Hashtags are comments):
#The first two lines have nothing to do with the configuration, but make some space below in the blue part of the ISE
Set-Location C:\Temp
Clear-Host
#So that you can carry out the configuration, you need the necessary cmdlets, these are contained in the module Az (is the higher-level module from a number of submodules)
Install-Module -Name Az -Force -AllowClobber -Verbose
#Log into Azure
Connect-AzAccount
#Select the correct subscription
Get-AzContext
Get-AzSubscription
Get-AzSubscription -SubscriptionName "your subscription name" | Select-AzSubscription
#Create a resource group
New-AzResourceGroup -ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup -Location WestEurope
#Create a virtual network
$virtualNetwork1 = New-AzVirtualNetwork `
-ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup `
-Location WestEurope `
-Name myVirtualNetwork1 `
-AddressPrefix 10.0.0.0/16
#Create a subnet configuration
$subnetConfig = Add-AzVirtualNetworkSubnetConfig `
-Name Subnet1 `
-AddressPrefix 10.0.0.0/24 `
-VirtualNetwork $virtualNetwork1
#Write the subnet configuration to the virtual network
$virtualNetwork1 | Set-AzVirtualNetwork
#Create a virtual network with a 10.1.0.0/16
$virtualNetwork2 = New-AzVirtualNetwork `
-ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup `
-Location WestEurope `
-Name myVirtualNetwork2 `
-AddressPrefix 10.1.0.0/16
#Create the subnet configuration.
$subnetConfig = Add-AzVirtualNetworkSubnetConfig `
-Name Subnet1 `
-AddressPrefix 10.1.0.0/24 `
-VirtualNetwork $virtualNetwork2
#Write the subnet configuration to the virtual network.
$virtualNetwork2 | Set-AzVirtualNetwork
#Create a peering, the following example peers myVirtualNetwork1 to myVirtualNetwork2
Add-AzVirtualNetworkPeering `
-Name myVirtualNetwork1-myVirtualNetwork2 `
-VirtualNetwork $virtualNetwork1 `
-RemoteVirtualNetworkId $virtualNetwork2.Id
#Confirm that the peering state
Get-AzVirtualNetworkPeering `
-ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup `
-VirtualNetworkName myVirtualNetwork1 `
| Select PeeringState
=> PeeringState is Initiated
#Create a peering, the following example peers myVirtualNetwork2 to myVirtualNetwork1
Add-AzVirtualNetworkPeering `
-Name myVirtualNetwork2-myVirtualNetwork1 `
-VirtualNetwork $virtualNetwork2 `
-RemoteVirtualNetworkId $virtualNetwork1.Id
#Confirm that the peering state
Get-AzVirtualNetworkPeering `
-ResourceGroupName myResourceGroup `
-VirtualNetworkName myVirtualNetwork1 `
| Select PeeringState
=> PeeringState is Connected
Now you have used the PowerShell to configure a virtual network peering! Congratulations!
#Delete all resources (when you no longer need it)
Remove-AzResourceGroup -Name myResourceGroup -Force
I hope this article was useful. Best regards, Tom Wechsler
