Azure Specific for High Availability

Azure

There are two authorization models that can be used in Azure: SDK Auth Credentials and Active Directory Credentials. SDK Auth Credentials are the recommended authorization model.
  • SDK Auth Credentials

    To generate SDK Auth Credentials, use the sdk authentication credential-file flash:startup-config command in the config-cloud-azure configuration mode. 

    switch(config)#cloud provider azure
switch(config-cloud-azure)# sdk authentication credential-file
flash:startup-config
  • Active Directory Credentials

    The following example places the vEOS router into the config-cloud-azure configuration mode and sets the active directory credentials. 

    switch(config)#cloud provider azure
switch(config-cloud-azure)#active-directory credential

Configure the backup-gateway, primary-gateway, Route Table ID (rtb), resource-group and next-hop for Azure

The resource group specified is the one which contains the route table referenced beneath it. The nextHopIp is the IP of the vEOS Router interface that traffic should be directed.
