Deploy and configure Azure VMware Solution

After you plan your deployment, deploy and configure your Azure VMware Solution private cloud.

In this tutorial, you'll:

[!div class="checklist"]

  • Register the resource provider and create a private cloud
  • Connect to a new or existing ExpressRoute virtual network gateway
  • Validate the network connection

Once you completed this section, follow the next steps provided at the end of this tutorial.

Register the Microsoft.AVS resource provider

[!INCLUDE register-resource-provider-steps]

Create an Azure VMware Solution private cloud

[!INCLUDE create-private-cloud-azure-portal-steps]

Connect to Azure Virtual Network with ExpressRoute

In the planning phase, you defined whether to use an existing or new ExpressRoute virtual network gateway.

Important

[!INCLUDE disk-pool-planning-note]

Use a new ExpressRoute virtual network gateway

Important

You must have a virtual network with a GatewaySubnet that does not already have a virtual network gateway.

If Then
You don't already have a virtual network... Create the following:
  1. Virtual network
  2. GatewaySubnet
  3. Virtual network gateway
  4. Connect ExpressRoute to the gateway
You already have a virtual network without a GatewaySubnet... Create the following:
  1. GatewaySubnet
  2. Virtual network gateway
  3. Connect ExpressRoute to the gateway
You already have a virtual network with a GatewaySubnet... Create the following:
  1. Virtual network gateway
  2. Connect ExpressRoute to the gateway

Use an existing virtual network gateway

[!INCLUDE connect-expressroute-to-vnet]

Validate the connection

Ensure connectivity between the Azure Virtual Network where the ExpressRoute terminates and the Azure VMware Solution private cloud.

  1. Use a virtual machine within the Azure Virtual Network where the Azure VMware Solution ExpressRoute terminates. For more information, see Connect to Azure Virtual Network with ExpressRoute.

    1. Sign in to the Azure portal.

    2. Navigate to a running VM, and under Settings, select Networking and the network interface resource.

      :::image type="content" source="../virtual-network/media/diagnose-network-routing-problem/view-nics.png" alt-text="Screenshot showing virtual network interface settings in Azure portal.":::

    3. On the left, select Effective routes. A list of address prefixes that are contained within the /22 CIDR block you entered during the deployment phase displays.

  2. To sign in to both vCenter Server and NSX Manager, open a web browser and sign in to the same virtual machine used for network route validation.

    Find the vCenter Server and NSX Manager console's IP addresses and credentials in the Azure portal. Select your private cloud and then Manage > VMware credentials.

Next steps

In the next tutorial, you'll connect Azure VMware Solution to your on-premises network through ExpressRoute.
