How Does Azure Virtual Network Peering Work? - Azure Training

You will also learn how to configure Microsoft Azure connectivity and name resolution. You will also learn how to connect two VNets using a virtual network gateway. Once you have mastered network connections, you will learn how to use Azure DNS to configure custom domain names for the resources in your VNets. Finally, you’ll learn how to set up both public and private DNS zones.

This course is designed for those professionals looking to train enterprise teams.

Azure Connectivity is also part of the AZ-103 and AZ-300 exams. If you’re interested in preparing for these Microsoft exams, we recommend the following learning paths:

Thank you for the explanation. I tested this just now and while creating the peering for one side it prompts for the name of the peer for the other side, so I entered vnet1-vnet2 for the first peer, and vnet2-vnet1 for the peering connection on the other end. It also has switches to control which direction communication can flow -- Allow access from vnet1 to vnet 2, and allow access from vnet2 to vnet1.

While preparing for AZ-104 I have observed that you dont have to create peering separately for vnet1 and vnet2. While creating peering in Vnet1 itself you can mention peering for Vnet2.

Is it possible to create a peer in one direction? and if you can will ICMP work? ie if I have a VM in vnet1 with is peered in one direction with vnet2 will I be able to ping a VM that is in vnet2 from vnet1?
