In this way, the virtual machine will have a public IP address (static or dynamic) assigned to it, and RDP or SSH service ports will open to the internet via NSG. This method provides easy access but not a very secure method.
If we have VPN or Express Route connectivity to Azure, we can…
In infrastructure, there are many reasons for allowing traffic between virtual networks such as application requirements, backup/DR requirements, replication requirements and so on. If it is internal networks, we can do this using inter-VLAN routing. If it is between networks in different physical locations, we can do it using VPN & Firewalls.
If it is Azure, how we can allow traffic…
If we need to set up a connection between two independent networks (not between VLANs), we have to use a virtual private network (VPN) connections. In Azure, we use VNets to create private networks. If we need to communicate between two VNets, we have to use one of the following methods,
• VNet-to-VNet Connection – The communication happens between two VPN gateways. This is easy to set…
DDoS attacks are the most commonly using method by attackers against resources which can access via internet. It can be website or application. DDoS attack can crash or slowdown service or application by sending large amount of access requests in short period of time. This applies to public cloud as well. There for Microsoft recently released Azure DDoS protection service to protect workloads in…
