Q

Integrating on-premises DNS with Azure VNets

A

Forwarding takes two forms:

Organizations often use an internal Azure private DNS zone for auto registration, and then use a custom configuration to forward queries from external zones to an external DNS server. Forwarding takes two forms
Forwarding - specifies another DNS server (SOA for a zone) to resolve the query if the initial server cannot.

Conditional forwarding - specifies a DNS server for a named zone, so that all queries for that zone are routed to the specified DNS server.

If the DNS server is outside Azure, it doesn’t have access to Azure DNS on 168.63.129.16. In this scenario, setup a DNS resolver inside your VNet, forward queries to it, and then have it forward queries to 168.63.129.16 (Azure DNS). Essentially, you’re using forwarding because 168.63.129.16 is not routable, and therefore not accessible to external clients.

45
Q

Service Chaining =

A

User Defined Route tables

46
Q

Virtual appliance:

A

A virtual appliance is a virtual machine that typically runs a network application, such as a firewall.

47
Q

When you create a route with the virtual appliance hop type, you also specify a next hop IP address. The IP address can be:

A
  1. The private IP address of a network interface attached to a virtual machine.
  2. The private IP address of an Azure internal load balancer.
48
Q

You can specify the following next hop types when creating a user-defined route:

A
  1. Virtual Appliance
  2. Virtual Network Gateway: The virtual network gateway must be created with type VPN.
  3. Virtual Network
  4. Internet
  5. None: when you want to drop traffic to an address prefix, rather than forwarding the traffic to a destination.
49
Q

Virtual network gateway route propagation.

A

Routes are automatically added to the route table for all subnets with Virtual network gateway propagation enabled. When you are using ExpressRoute, propagation ensures all subnets get the routing information.

50
Q

Each subnet can have __________number of route table associated to it.

A

zero or one

51
Q

The virtual appliance

A
  1. shouldn’t have a public IP address and

2. IP forwarding should be enabled.

52
Q

Forced Tunelling

A
  1. Forced tunneling lets you redirect or “force” all Internet-bound traffic back to your on-premises location via a Site-to-Site VPN tunnel for inspection and auditing.
  2. This is a critical security requirement for most enterprise IT policies.
  3. If you don’t configure forced tunneling, Internet-bound traffic from your VMs in Azure always traverses from the Azure network infrastructure directly out to the Internet, without the option to allow you to inspect or audit the traffic.
53
Q

Each virtual network subnet has a built-in, system routing table. The system routing table has the following three groups of routes:

A
  1. Local VNet routes: Route directly to the destination VMs in the same virtual network
  2. On-premises routes: Route to the Azure VPN gateway.
  3. Default route: Route directly to the Internet.
54
Q

Purpose of NAT

A
  1. Rather than purchasing an IPv4 address for each resource that requires internet access, you can use a NAT service to map outgoing requests from internal resources to an external IP address, so that communication can take place.
  2. NAT takes precedence over other outbound scenarios and replaces the default Internet destination of a subnet.
  3. No further configuration is necessary, and you don’t need to create any user-defined routes.
55
Q

NAT is compatible with the following standard SKU resources:

A
  1. Load balancer
  2. Public IP address
  3. Public IP prefix
56
Q

Limitations of NAT

A
  1. Basic resources (for example basic load balancer) and any products derived from them aren’t compatible with NAT
  2. IPv4 address family is supported.
  3. NAT can’t span multiple virtual networks.
57
Q

Networks that connect on-premises resources and virtual resources are known as ______networks.

A

hybrid

58
Q

One option for connecting an on-premises network to an Azure VNET is a VPN connection.

A

They are encrypted tunnel, typically deployed to connect two or more trusted private networks to one another over an untrusted network, usually the public Internet.

59
Q

VPN gateways support multiple connections, which enable them to route VPN tunnels that use any available bandwidth. True/ False

A

True. All connections to that VPN gateway share the available network bandwidth.

60
Q

VPN gateways cannot be used for connections between virtual networks in Azure. True/ False

A

False. VPN gateways can also be used for connections between virtual networks in Azure

61
Q

When you’re planning a Vnet gateway, there are three architectures to consider:

A
  1. Point to site over the internet
  2. Site to site over the internet
  3. Site to site over a dedicated network, such as Azure ExpressRoute
62
Q

Factors that you need to cover during your planning process include:

A
  1. Throughput - Mbps or Gbps
  2. Backbone - Internet or private?
  3. Availability of a public (static) IP address
  4. VPN device compatibility
  5. Multiple client connections or a site-to-site link?
  6. VPN gateway type
  7. Azure VPN Gateway SKU
63
Q

Types of Vnet Gateways

A

VPN Gateway (point-to-site and site-to-site) or ExpressRoute Gateway

64
Q

Types of VPN Gateways

A

Route based or Policy based.

65
Q

VPN Gateway - Generation

A

Generation 1 or Generation 2. You cannot change generations or SKUs across generations.

66
Q

VPN Gateways require a gateway subnet. You can create a Gateway subnet before you create a VPN gateway, or you can create it during the creation of the VPN Gateway.

A
  1. When you create your virtual network gateway, gateway VMs are deployed to the gateway subnet and configured with the required VPN gateway settings
  2. Never deploy anything else (for example, additional VMs) to the gateway subnet.
  3. The gateway subnet must be named GatewaySubnet to work properly. Naming the gateway subnet GatewaySubnet tells Azure know that this is the subnet to deploy the virtual network gateway VMs and services to.
  4. While you can create a gateway subnet as small as /29, we recommend that you create a gateway subnet of /27 or larger (/27, /26 etc.) if you have the available address space to do so. This will accommodate most configurations.
67
Q

High availability options for VPN connections

A
  1. VPN Gateway redundancy (Active-standby)
  2. Multiple on-premises VPN devices
  3. Active-active Azure VPN gateway
  4. Dual-redundancy: active-active VPN gateways for both Azure and on-premises networks
68
Q

The local network gateway typically refers to the on-premises location.

A

You give the site a name by which Azure can refer to it, then specify the IP address or FQDN of the on-premises VPN device for the connection.

69
Q

To configure your VPN device, you will need:

A
  1. A shared key. The same shared key that you specify when creating the VPN connection.
  2. The public IP address of your VPN gateway. The IP address can be new or existing.
70
Q

Active-standby VPN configuration

A
  1. Every Azure VPN gateway consists of two instances in an active-standby configuration.
  2. For any planned maintenance or unplanned disruption that happens to the active instance, the standby instance would take over (failover) automatically and resume the S2S VPN or VNet-to-VNet connections.
  3. The switch over will cause a brief interruption.
71
Q

Multiple on-premises VPN devices

A
  1. You need to create multiple S2S VPN connections from your VPN devices to Azure. When you connect multiple VPN devices from the same on-premises network to Azure, you need to create one local network gateway for each VPN device, and one connection from your Azure VPN gateway to each local network gateway.
  2. BGP is required for this configuration
  3. ECMP (Equal Cost Multi Path routing) is required
72
Q

Multiple on-premises VPN devices vs. Active-standby VPN configuration

A
  1. Both are Active- standby modes
  2. Same failover behavior
  3. Multiple on-prem VPN devices setup setup guards against failures or interruptions on-premises network and VPN devices.
73
Q

Active-active VPN gateways

A
  1. Both instances of the gateway VMs will establish S2S VPN tunnels to your on-premises VPN device
  2. Each Azure gateway instance will have a unique public IP address
  3. The traffic from your Azure virtual network to your on-premises network will be routed through both tunnels simultaneously
74
Q

Dual-redundancy VPN devices setup

A
  1. You create and set up the Azure VPN gateway in an active-active configuration and create two local network gateways and two connections for your two on-premises VPN devices
  2. The result is a full mesh connectivity of 4 IPsec tunnels between your Azure virtual network and your on-premises network.
  3. All gateways and tunnels are active from the Azure side, so the traffic will be spread among all 4 tunnels simultaneously
  4. BGP is required to allow the two connections to the same on-premises network.
75
Q

An Azure VPN gateway is made up of these elements:

A
  1. Virtual network gateway
  2. Local network gateway
  3. Connection
  4. Gateway subnet
76
Q

A

site-to-site (S2S)

77
Q

A ______VPN gateway connection lets you create a secure connection to your virtual network from an individual client computer - site-to-site (S2S) or point-to-site (P2S)

A

point-to-site (P2S)

78
Q

Point-to-site authentication methods - 3 methods

  2. Standard - ExpressRoute, User VPN (P2S), VPN (site-to-site), Inter-hub and VNet-to-VNet transiting through the virtual hub
85
Q

The minimum address space is _____ to create a hub.

A

/24

86
Q

You don’t need to explicitly plan the subnet address space for the services in the virtual hub. True/ False

A

True. Because Azure Virtual WAN is a managed service, it creates the appropriate subnets in the virtual hub for the different gateways/services (for example, VPN gateways, ExpressRoute gateways, User VPN point-to-site gateways, Firewall, routing, etc.).

87
Q

A virtual hub can contain ______ gateway(s). one or multiple

A

multiple gateways. A virtual hub can contain multiple gateways such as a Site-to-site VPN gateway, ExpressRoute gateway, Point-to-site gateway, Azure Firewall.

88
Q

Virtual Hub routing - connections. Each connection is associated to one route table.

A
  1. VPN connection: Connects a VPN site to a virtual hub VPN gateway.
  2. ExpressRoute connection: Connects an ExpressRoute circuit to a virtual hub ExpressRoute gateway.
  3. P2S configuration connection: Connects a User VPN (Point-to-site) configuration to a virtual hub User VPN (Point-to-site) gateway.
  4. Hub virtual network connection: Connects virtual networks to a virtual hub.
89
Q

Multiple connections cannot be associated to the same route table. - True or False

A

False

90
Q

By default, all connections are associated to a Default route table in a Azure virtual hub. True or False

A

True. Each virtual hub has its own Default route table, which can be edited to add a static route(s).

91
Q

Azure Virtual hub route propagation - With which configuration connections, routes are propagated from the virtual hub to the on-premises router using BGP?

A

a VPN connection, ExpressRoute connection, or P2S configuration connection

92
Q

Routes can be propagated to one or multiple route tables. True or False

A

True.

93
Q

Labels provide a mechanism to logically group route tables.

A

This is especially helpful during propagation of routes from connections to multiple route tables.

94
Q

For Standard Virtual WAN Customers with pre-existing routes in virtual hub: you will need to first delete them and then attempt creating new route tables. True or False

A

True. If you have pre-existing routes in Routing section for the hub in Azure portal, you will need to first delete them, and then create new route tables. In case of Basic Virtual WAN Customers with pre-existing routes in virtual hub, you have to delete the rote tables and then upgrade your Basic Virtual WAN to Standard Virtual WAN.

95
Q

NVA - Network Virtual Appliance- NVAs are deployed directly into a _____ and have an ______facing public IP address.

A

Virtual WAN hub; externally

96
Q

NVA deployment process

A
  1. Choose the NVA offer to deploy to hub

2. Azure Marketplace Managed Application - Choose deployment settings and aggregate capacity

97
Q

Once the NVA has been provisioned into the virtual hub, any additional configuration need not be performed via the NVA partners portal or management application. You can access the NVA directly. True or False

A

False. Once the NVA has been provisioned into the virtual hub, any additional configuration must be performed via the NVA partners portal or management application. You cannot access the NVA directly.

98
Q

When you create an NVA in the Virtual WAN hub, like all Managed Applications, there will be two Resource Groups created in your subscription.

A
  1. Customer Resource Group- Partners can use this to expose whatever customer properties they choose here.
  2. Managed Resource Group - Customers cannot configure or change resources in this resource group directly, as this is controlled by the publisher of the Managed Application. This Resource Group will contain the NetworkVirtualAppliances resource.
99
Q

Unlike Azure VPN Gateway configurations, you do not need to create Site resources, Site-to-Site connection resources, or point-to-site connection resources to connect your branch sites to your NVA in the Virtual WAN hub. True or False

A

True. This is all managed via the NVA partner. You still need to create Hub-to-VNet connections to connect your Virtual WAN hub to your Azure VNets.
