Here I have created our AzureBastionSubnet quite high in my VNET range as you will find there are many things that require specific subnets as you work through the Networking features of Azure. Now, as a prerequisite, Azure Bastion is expecting to find a Subnet named ‘AzureBastionSubnet’, so we can quickly set this up by clicking on the link ‘Manage Subnet Configuration’ We are presented with a screen to configure Bastion. Remember that this VM does NOT have a public IP, so is not contactable to anything outside of the Azure VNET that it is currently located. So, I’m going to view the VM in the Azure Portal and select ‘Connect’, then select ‘Bastion’.

For our purposes here, I will walk through a quick way to set up a Bastion in your subscription.

We can use a variety of ways to configure Bastion, PowerShell, CLI, Portal etc. I have a Basic Virtual Machine in my Subscription called ‘VM01’ It is connected to my Jonnychipz-VNET in the ‘Servers’ Subnet, so will have a private IP of 172.16.1.0/24. All of these techniques are highly frowned up on by any security teams and quite frankly, you would NEVER do in a production environment, so using Azure Bastion offers secure access to your Azure hosted VM’s via a Browser!Īs alluded above, Azure Bastion offers a Secure way to access your resources in Azure at the same time as keeping your Security team smiling and happy!įirstly, lets set the scope.

If you are an IT Pro or in some form of admin function, you will know what a ‘Jump Box’ is, and Azure Bastion in layman’s terms is an answer to this concept.īastion is a secure PaaS offering in Azure that you can create and configure to offer TLS connections to your servers (RDP or SSH) without the need to provision a specific server with published access via a firewall, without the need to provide a public IP directly onto your internal servers etc. So Bastion went GA quite a few months ago now and I did have a little play with it then, but thought this would make a nice little article. Resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.rg.In keeping with my #AzureNetworking series, Azure Bastion seems like a nice place to move to next! Location = azurerm_resource_group.rg.location

See more articles and sample code showing how to use Terraform to manage Azure resourcesĬreate a directory in which to test the sample Terraform code and make it the current directory.Ĭreate a file named providers.tf and insert the following code: terraform -public-ip" You can view the log file containing the test results from current and previous versions of Terraform. The sample code for this article is located in the Azure Terraform GitHub repo.
