Create a Virtual Network

Create a virtual network so that you can later create a virtual machine for cloud bursting.

You must have already created a resource group.

Azure documentation can be found at Virtual Network Documentation.

  1. Login in to your Microsoft Azure account.
  2. Using the search box, enter virtual networks.
    A list of search results is listed.
  3. Under Services, click Virtual networks.

  7. For Name, enter a name for the virtual network.
    The name can be anything meaningful to your organization, e.g., bursting_virtual_network
  8. For Region, select the same geographical location as was selected for the previously created resource group.
  9. In the IP Addresses tab, for IPv4 address space, enter an address range for the network using CIDR notation.
  10. Click Add subnetand for enter the following:
    1. For Subnet name, enter a name for the virtual machine's subnet.

    2. For Subnet address range, enter an address range for the subnet in CIDR notation.
    3. Click Add.

    It may take a moment to create the virtual network. The name of the virtual network is required for creating a bursting scenario in NavOps.
