Windows Azure Virtual Network (3) creates Ad server and adds it to Virtual network

In the previous article, the author has introduced how to create a simple azure Virtual network.

In this chapter I will create a domain server (AD Server) and add ad to the virtual network.

1. First we login to Windows Azure Management Portal, http://manage.windowsazure.com

2. Modify the Myvnet settings we created in the previous chapter, click Myvnet, select Configure, in DNS server, drop mydns, and then select 192.168.0.4in IP address. Finally choose SAVE.

Note that the benefits of doing this are two points:

1 in the past, when we deployed the AD domain within the enterprise, the DNS addresses of other servers that needed to join the domain were pointed to the IP address of the ad server.

The disadvantage of this is that if there are many servers in this domain, the need to modify one after another is very troublesome.

In Windows Azure, we only need to set the IP address of the DNS servers in the figure above to implement the batch set up DNS Server.

2 If we want to add a new ad server in the future, just add a row of records to the DNS servers in the image above.

this equals setting DNS in bulk to modify all servers that have joined the ad. The advantage is that there is no need to modify one after another, but also very convenient.

3. Because the azure VM is ultimately stored in storage account, we create storage name Leivms

Note: To ensure connectivity between the Web App VM and the SQL Server VM, when creating storage, choose us to create a simple Virtual in the previous chapter [Sdk2.2]windows Azure Virtual Network (2) Affinity Group created in network: eastasiagroup
