Task 2: Deploy a Route Table and Create a UDR
In Task Two, you will deploy a Route Table and modify the Route Table by associating both protected subnets to use port2 of the FortiGate as the default route. This is what is called a User Defined Route (UDR).
Navigate into your Resource Group and click on the + Create located at the top left of the tool bar.
You will be redirected to the Azure Marketplace.
In the Marketplace search bar, enter route table and then enter. Navigate to the Route table offering from Microsoft and select Create and Route table.
You will be redirected to the Create Route table template.
Under the Basics tab, the Subscription and Resource Groups should already be filled in with your assigned info. If not, see the screen shot below for details.
- Under Instance details, enter the following:
- Region: “West US 3”
- Name: “Studentxx_RT” (Replace xx with your assigned student number)
- Propagate gateway routes: “No”
- Select Next.
- Under Instance details, enter the following:
On the Tags tab, click Next. Nothing to enter here.
On the Review + create tab, confirm your entries under Basics and then select create.
The screen should refresh and you will see Deployment is in progress.
After a few minutes, you will see Your deployment is complete. Select Go to resource. You will be directed to the Studentxx_RT Overview page.
Take a few moments and familiarize yourself with the route table Overview page.
In the next few steps, you will be creating a UDR
From the Studentxx_RT Overview page, navigate to Settings and then Routes. From the Routes page, select + Add.
The Add route will display on the right. Enter the following:
- Route name: “Default”
- Destination type: “IP Address”
- Destination IP address/CIDR ranges: “0.0.0.0/0”
- Next hop type: “Virtual appliance”
- Next hop address: “192.168.1.36” (Confirm this is the same IP assigned to port2 on your FortiGate NVA).
- Select Add
You will see the new route called Default listed under the Routes section.
Continue to add two more routes for Protected-A-Subnet and Protected-B-Subnet.
When finished, the Routes page should have the three routes listed. See the following diagram for confirmation.
On the left hand side, select Subnets and + Associate. The Associate subnet page will display on the right. Enter the following:
- Virtual network: “Studentxx_VNET” (Replace xx with your assign student number)
- Subnet: “Protected-A_Subnet”
- Select OK.
Click + Associate again and add the Protected-B_Subnet. You should have both subnets listed under the Subnets tab.
Return to the Overview page to see a summary of the Routes and associated Subnets.
