Azure Virtual Network Peering - Connect VNets for Secure Communication

Azure Virtual Network (VNet) peering allows you to seamlessly connect two Azure virtual networks. VNet peering enables resources in different virtual networks to communicate with each other securely over the Microsoft backbone network. This is particularly valuable for scenarios like connecting production and development environments, cross-regional application deployment, or creating hub-and-spoke network topologies.

The lab provides hands-on experience with both regional and global VNet peering, network security configurations, and best practices for enterprise networking in Azure.

Objectives

Upon completion of this intermediate level lab, you will be able to:

• Configure and establish VNet peering connections between two Azure virtual networks
• Implement bidirectional communication between peered networks
• Manage network security and access controls in peered VNets
• Troubleshoot common VNet peering connectivity issues

Who is this lab for?

This lab is designed for:

• Network administrators who manage Azure networking infrastructure
• DevOps engineers implementing cloud networking solutions
• Cloud architects designing multi-VNet architectures
