Demonstration – Create and configure network routing

In this demonstration, we will learn how to create a route table, define a custom route, and associate the route with a subnet.

Note: This demonstration requires a virtual network with at least one subnet.

Route network traffic - tutorial - Azure portal

Create a Route table

  1. As you have time review the tutorial diagram. Explain why you need to create a user-defined route.

  2. Access the Azure portal.

  3. Search for and select Route tables. Discuss when propagate gateway routes should be used.

  4. Create a routing table, explain any uncommon settings.

  5. Wait for the new routing table to be deployed.

Add a route

  1. Select your new routing table, and then select Routes.

  2. Create a new route. Discuss the different hop types that are available.

  3. Create the new route and wait for the resource to be deployed.

Associate a Route Table to a subnet

A route table can be associated to zero or more subnets. Route tables aren’t associated to virtual networks. You must associate a route table to each subnet you want the route table associated to.

  1. Navigate to the subnet you want to associate with the routing table.

  2. Select Route table and choose your new routing table.

  3. Save your changes.

Note: You can only associate a route table to subnets in virtual networks that exist in the same Azure location and subscription as the route table.
