Here’s a step-by-step lab guide for creating a Virtual Network (VNet) in a cloud

environment, such as Microsoft Azure. This guide assumes you’re working in


Azure, but the principles are similar across other platforms like AWS or GCP.

Lab Guide: Creating a Virtual Network (VNet) in Azure


Objective
To create and configure a Virtual Network (VNet) in Azure, including subnets,
address space, and basic settings.

Prerequisites
1. An active Azure account.
2. Permissions to create VNets in the subscription/resource group.

Steps to Create a VNet


1. Log in to Azure Portal
1. Go to Azure Portal.
2. Log in with your credentials.

2. Navigate to Virtual Networks


1. In the Azure Portal, search for "Virtual Networks" in the search bar.
2. Click on Virtual Networks from the search results.

3. Create a New Virtual Network


1. Click the + Create button.
2. Choose the Subscription and Resource Group for the VNet.
o If needed, create a new resource group.

3. Provide a Name for the VNet (e.g., "LabVNet").


4. Select the Region where the VNet will be deployed.

4. Configure the Address Space


1. In the Address space section, specify the CIDR block (e.g., 10.0.0.0/16).
o Ensure the address space does not overlap with other networks in
the same region.
5. Add Subnets
1. Under the Subnets tab, add at least one subnet:
o Name: e.g., "Subnet1".

o Address range (CIDR): e.g., 10.0.1.0/24.

2. Add additional subnets as needed (e.g., for DMZ, private, or public


subnets).

6. Configure Security Options (Optional)


1. In the Security tab, you can enable:
o BastionHost: For secure RDP/SSH connections.

o Firewall: For advanced security.

o DDOS Protection: Basic or Standard.

7. Review and Create


1. Click Review + Create.
2. Validate the settings and ensure there are no errors.
3. Click Create to deploy the VNet.

Post-Creation Validation
1. Navigate to the Virtual Networks section in Azure.
2. Select your newly created VNet and verify:
o Address space.

o Subnets.

o Connectivity.

Next Steps (Optional)


 Deploy VMs: Launch VMs in the subnets to test connectivity.
 Network Security Groups (NSGs): Assign NSGs to subnets to control
traffic.
 Peering: Set up VNet peering if connecting to other VNets.
