(= no custom encryption like S2S VPN)

• Requirements
• Same Region & Across Regions
• Non-overlapping IP Addresses
• No Transitivity

• Capabilities
• Open or Close NSGs

• Subnet, part of VNet range
• VM, ILBs, App GWs
• Dynamic or Static
(default)

aka.ms/Azure/Addresses
Configure Name Resolution
• Create DNS Zone
• Zone name must be unique within Resource Group
• Can add Azure Tags for Billing or Grouping
• Creating the zone makes SOA and NS records in Azure

• Create DNS Record

• Azure DNS supports all common records

• SOA and CNAME are exceptions to Rule above

• Delegate Domain to Azure DNS

• Must know zone server names
• Get-AzureRmDnsZone –Name contoso.net –ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroup

aka.ms/Azure/DNS
Create and Configure a Network Security Group (NSG)

• Apply at Subnet or NIC

• Only 1 NSG per Azure Resource
• Only TCP or UDP

1. Cloud-only
• Users and Groups are managed in Azure Active Directory only
• Azure AD stores the password (encrypted)

2. Hybrid Active Directory with password Sync

• On-premises Active Directory is the « master »
• Users and Groups are synchronized to Azure Active Directory using ADConnect (or MIM or 3rd party)
• Password is synced encrypted out of ADConnect (or MIM or 3rd party)

3. Hybrid Active Directory with Federation

• Relies on ADConnect to synchronize objects
• ADFS or 3rd party Federation engine, running on-premises or in Azure VMs (with S2S or ER)

4. Hybrid Active Directory with PassThrough Authentication

• Relies on ADConnect to synchronize objects
• Instead of ADFS federation, deploy the PTA agents on on-premises servers (ADDS DCs)
