Secure Remote Access | Azure Bastion
Azure Bastion is a service you deploy that lets you connect to a virtual machine using your browser and the Azure portal, or via the native SSH or RDP client already installed on your local computer.
Bastion is used to connect to VMs that you deploy in Azure (via rdp or ssh).
It provides RDP/SSH connectivity to all the virtual machines in the virtual network it’s provisioned in.
Some of the benefits of Azure Bastion are:
- RDP and SSH through the Azure portal
- No public IP address on the Azure VM
- No need to manage a separate bastion host and many others.
Azure Bastion, you can securely connect to your VMs without requiring a public IP or VPN, using just the Azure portal and the RDP or SSH protocols
Azure Bastion is deployed in a virtual network, which means it supports virtual network peering.
Azure Virtual Network Peering enables you to seamlessly connect two or more virtual networks (VNets) in Azure, making them appear as one for connectivity purposes.
The traffic between virtual machines (VMs) in peer VNets uses the Microsoft backbone infrastructure, ensuring high performance and security. Like traffic within a single VNet, all communication is routed…
