Azure Virtual WAN
Azure Virtual WAN provides a mechanism for a managed hub-and-spoke network within Azure. It consolidates all your endpoint connection types into a single service that simplifies the management of your complex networks and enables transitive network functionality.
The following diagram shows an illustration of the various interconnections that may be employed in a typical environment:
Figure 19.34: Azure Virtual WAN illustration
As illustrated in the diagram in Figure 19.34, you can have various connection types, such as ER, S2S connections, P2S connections, and even VNet peering. All the traffic flow configurations are managed through Azure Virtual WAN, which will also configure your transitive network flows, eliminating the need for an additional Network Virtual Appliance (NVA). The deployment of Virtual WAN also allows for the deployment of a firewall in the solution, allowing you to secure traffic natively through your hub-and-spoke...
