Connecting Azure virtual machines in different regions

In this example we’ll connect virtual networks located in different Azure regions.This connections is called VNet to VNet.VNet-to-VNet connectivity utilizes the Azure virtual gateways to connect two or more virtual networks together.

 

Creating Gateway subnet-West Europe

Before deploying Virtual Network Gateway we need first to deploy gateway subnet

In subnet properties click + Gateway subnet

Creating Virtual network gateway

In Azure portal click new resource-Virtual network gateaway

 

Gateway type:VPN

VPN Type:route-based

 

 

Creating virtual network in North Europe

 

Creating Gateway subnet

 

Defining subnet

Creating Virtual Gateway

 

In similar way Virtual Network gateway is created in west europe (gateway subnet-10.0.2.0/24)

 

Creating virtual machine in North Europe region

VM is created in North Europe and assigned to vnet-northeurope network

 

Creating VM in West Europe

similar for Virtual machine in West Europe

Creating VNet peering

in NorthEurope Virtual network gateway click Connections-Add

 

 

Specify shared key and opposite network gateway-Virtual network gateway from west-europe (as second gateway)

 

 

Create VNet peering from opposite side-from west europe virtual gateway click-connections-add connection-for second virtual gateway specify north europe virtual gateway-same shared key

 

On both sides, on Virtual network gateway-under connections,connection state should be connected

 

 

Connection from north europe VM to VM in west europe using private IP and vice-versa
