Connecting Microsoft Azure Virtual Networks from Pluralsight

You need connectivity between Azure virtual networks (VPNs) and do not have the time, money, or patience necessary to deploy VPN gateways. This course teaches you how to plan, implement, and troubleshoot VNet peering in Microsoft Azure.

At the core of Microsoft Azure software-defined networking is a thorough knowledge of virtual networks (VNets) and their interconnectivity possibilities. In Connecting Microsoft Azure Virtual Networks, you’ll learn how to design, implement, and troubleshoot VNet peerings both within single regions as well as across different regions. First, you’ll learn how to choose between Vnet-to-VNet VPNs and VNet peering. Next, you’ll explore how to configure both types of VNet peering. Finally, you’ll discover how to troubleshoot VNet peerings when you receive unexpected results. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have a foundational knowledge of VNet peering that will help you as you move forward in your career as a Microsoft Azure IT operations professional.
