Microsoft Azure Administration Training - AZ-104: Understanding User Defined Routing (UDR) in Azure

In this video, we continue our exploration of Azure's inter-site connectivity, focusing on routing in Azure Virtual Networks and how to control traffic flow with both system-defined and user-defined routing. Learn how to configure custom routing and implement service and private endpoints for secure connectivity. Chapters & Timestamps: 00:00 Intro – Recap of Part 1, focus of Part 2 00:45 Topics – Routing, UDRs, service endpoints vs private endpoints 01:07 Module – Virtual networking, 15–20% of AZ-104 exam 02:09 Azure routing intro – Default/system routes 03:36 System-defined routes – Subnet, internet, vnet rules 04:49 Traffic shaping – Overriding with UDRs 05:24 UDR next hops – None, internet, vnet, NVA, VPN Gateway 06:53 UDR demo intro – App VM setup with public IP 08:11 Check system routes – Effective routes on NIC 10:05 0.0.0.0/0 default internet route explained 10:55 Create route table – Blocking internet via UDR 12:00 Route table config – Create, define route to ‘none’ 13:32 Associate route table – Apply UDR to subnet 14:48 UDR applied – Default internet route invalidated 16:03 Confirm loss of internet – UDR took effect 17:20 Summary – Traffic shaping using UDRs 20:02 Service endpoints – Secure optimized access to PaaS 21:17 Supported services – SQL, Storage, Key Vault, etc. 22:04 Service endpoint demo – Enable for storage & subnet 24:04 File share test – Mount storage with public access 25:30 Confirm internet use – Script uses public IP 26:33 Block outbound internet – Add NSG deny rule 27:07 Script fails – No internet, service endpoint blocked 27:50 Intro private endpoint – NIC added to vnet for true private access 29:00 Create private endpoint – Storage account target 31:30 Storage access via private IP – UDR/NSG doesn't block it 33:15 Confirm private access – Mounted file share via internal traffic 34:21 Compare – Service endpoint vs private endpoint summary The following topics are covered: Routing in Azure Virtual Network: Understand how routing works within Azure Virtual Networks and how to manage traffic between subnets and external resources. System Defined Routing (SDR): Learn about system-defined routing and how Azure automatically handles routing between subnets in the same Virtual Network. User Defined Routing (UDR): Discover how to configure custom routes using User Defined Routing (UDR) to control traffic flow between networks and external services. Demo: Implement Custom Routing via UDR: Watch a hands-on demonstration of how to configure and implement custom routing in Azure Virtual Networks using UDR. Service Endpoints and Private Endpoints in Azure Virtual Networks: Explore the differences between service endpoints and private endpoints, and learn how to securely connect to Azure services over private IP addresses. Demo: Implementing Service Endpoints and Private Endpoints in Azure Virtual Networks: See how to set up and configure service and private endpoints in Azure to enhance security and connectivity. By the end of this video, you'll have a comprehensive understanding of routing options, service endpoints, and private endpoints in Azure Virtual Networks—critical concepts for the AZ-104 certification.
