Azure Networking
This section provides comprehensive documentation on Azure networking services, helping you design, deploy, and manage your cloud network infrastructure.
Key Networking Concepts
Understanding core networking concepts is crucial for effective Azure network management.
Virtual Networks (VNets)
Isolate your Azure resources in a private network. VNets provide a foundation for many Azure networking services.
Load Balancing
Distribute network traffic across multiple virtual machines or services to ensure high availability and performance.
Network Security Groups (NSGs)
Filter network traffic to and from Azure resources in an Azure virtual network.
Advanced Networking Topics
Explore more specialized areas of Azure networking.
VPN Gateway
Connect your on-premises networks to Azure securely over the public internet.
ExpressRoute
Establish private connections between your on-premises infrastructure and Microsoft Azure.
Azure Firewall
A cloud-native and intelligent network security service that protects your VNet resources.
Traffic Manager
Distribute traffic across endpoints in different datacenters or regions for improved application performance and availability.
Common Tasks & Scenarios

Examples and Tutorials
Step-by-step guides and code examples to help you implement Azure networking solutions.
For example, to create a basic Virtual Network using Azure CLI:
az network vnet create \
--resource-group MyResourceGroup \
--name MyVNet \
--address-prefix 10.0.0.0/16 \
--subnet-name MySubnet \
--subnet-prefix 10.0.0.0/24
