To deploy Azure virtual machines to the France Central region and ensure they are in a network segment with an IP address range of 10.5.1.0/24, follow these steps:
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Create a Virtual Network in France Central
Navigate to the Azure Portal.
Search for “Virtual networks” in the search bar and select it.
Click on “Create”.
Enter the following details:
Subscription: Select your subscription.
Resource Group: Select an existing resource group or create a new one.
Name: Enter a name for the virtual network (e.g., VNet-FranceCentral).
Region: Select France Central.
Click on “Next: IP Addresses”.
Step 2: Configure the Address Space and Subnet
In the IP Addresses tab, enter the address space as 10.5.1.0/24.
Click on “Add subnet”.
Enter the following details:
Subnet name: Enter a name for the subnet (e.g., Subnet-1).
Subnet address range: Enter 10.5.1.0/24.
Click on “Add”.
Click on “Review + create” and then “Create”.
Step 3: Deploy Virtual Machines to the Virtual Network
Navigate to the Azure Portal.
Search for “Virtual machines” in the search bar and select it.
Click on “Create” and then “Azure virtual machine”.
Enter the following details:
Subscription: Select your subscription.
Resource Group: Select the same resource group used for the virtual network.
Virtual machine name: Enter a name for the VM.
Region: Select France Central.
Image: Select the desired OS image.
Size: Select the appropriate VM size.
Click on “Next: Disks”, configure the disks as needed, and then click on “Next: Networking”.
In the Networking tab, select the virtual network (VNet-FranceCentral) and subnet (Subnet-1) created earlier.
Complete the remaining configuration steps and click on “Review + create” and then “Create”.
Explanation
Virtual Network: A virtual network in Azure allows you to create a logically isolated network that can host your Azure resources.
Address Space: The address space 10.5.1.0/24 ensures that the VMs are in a specific network segment.
Subnet: Subnets allow you to segment the virtual network into smaller, manageable sections.
Region: Deploying the virtual network and VMs in the France Central region ensures that the resources are physically located in that region.
By following these steps, you can ensure that your Azure virtual machines in the France Central region are deployed within the specified IP address range of 10.5.1.0/24.
