- Deploys the following infrastructure:
- Virtual Network
- 1 subnet
- 1 Network Security Groups
- AD - permits AD traffic, RDP incoming to network; limits DMZ access
- Public IP Address
- AD VM
- DSC installs AD
- The Azure vNet is updated with a custom DNS entry pointing to the DC
- Test users are created in the local AD by passing in an array. There is an array sample set as the default value in the deployment template.
- Azure Active Directory Connect is installed and available to configure.
- The NSG is defined for reference, but is isn't production-ready as holes are also opened for RDP, and public IPs are allocated
- One VM size is specified for all VMs
- This template is explicitly designed for a lab/classroom environment. A few compromises were made, especially with regards to credential passing to DSC and script automation, that WILL result in clear text passwords being left behind in the DSC/scriptextension package folders, Azure log folders, and system event logs on the resulting VMs.
The "deploy.ps1" file above can be downloaded and run locally against this repo, and offers a few additional features:
- After the deployment completes, it will create a folder on your desktop with the name of the resource group
- It will then create an RDP connection in that folder for the DC VM.
- It will generate a text file with your test user names
