We are using the IoT hub and Azure functions. Both are not exposed to public and working on private environment.
We have the VNet with the range of x.x.111.x to x.x.114.x
We have the Private-end-point (x.x.111.x) to connect the IoT hub to the virtual network. The Azure functions VNet integration was enabled and the selected Private end point range is (x.x.112.x). But the Inbound Private End point is configured as x.x.111.x.
We have a script which will listen on IoT hub Build-in-endpoints. We have tested the script in one of the VM(x.x.111.x). Its writing the data to the Data lake Containers which was there in the same VNet. When we deploy the same script into the Azure Functions, its not writing any data to the destination.
Our Question:
To establish the communication between recourses is required same subnet or we can establish the connection with same VNet?
Thanks for your support in Advance
Our Question: To establish the communication between recourses is
required same subnet or we can establish the connection with same
VNet?
Azure Allow communication between Vnet of same subnet by default and also Vnet of Different subnet as well.
Case 1 : Communication within same subnet.
All the devices in the same subnet can communicate directly with one another without going through any routers.
case 2 : Communication between different subnet.
NICs connected to subnets (same or different) within a VNet can communicate with each other without any extra configuration

I want to restrict access to my Azure storage account to selected networks only (please see image).
Current network restriction setting
My current set up is as follows:
I have an Azure Storage account, with blob containers and tables.
Only selected networks can access this storage account (please see the first image above). I've selected the gateway subnet (I've tried to add other subnets within the same virtual network, to no avail).
I have selected a virtual network call. All service endpoints for this network are set up correctly ('storage-service endpoint' is 'succesful'). The subnet involved is gateway subnet.
I also have a virtual gateway which is placed inside this virtual network. With (of course) the gateway subnet assigned to it.
Subnet endpoint permission
I have a point2site VPN connection (using Azure VPN client) to connect to this virtual network from my local machine (see image below).
This connection has been set up as well, using Active Directory as authentication method. All seems correctly working.
The virtual gateway to which the VPN connects, can see the active connection (see image below)
Obviously, I'm doing something wrong, so any help is very much welcome!
Regards,R.
VPN connection details
I have a point2site connection to the virtual network that is granted access to this storage account (see images below).
The point2site connection looks good (see image below), but I still can't access the storage account.
Current connection in azure VPN client
Current view of active connection to Virtual Gateway that connects to this Vnet.
Any help is much appreciated!
I tried to reproduce your scenario that can be possible with setting the private end point in storage account and azure VPN client.
you need to create and configure a Private End Point under the subnet you have the storage account exists.
Go to 'Private Endpoint Connection' under settings of storage account in azure portal as below:
Connected with Vnet using Azure VPN client .
Now you can map network drive on this pc using this format
\\Private IP Address or FDQN \Filesharename
For me there is one blockage.it error: Unable to reach the Azure storage account via port 445. I can’t add port 445 in my system if you have port number 445 you can be able to access the file share if not add port 445 so the SMB traffic over this port.
Note: Disable the firewall/ anti-virus temporarily installed on your computer.

I have created Virtual Network Connection.
I have created Connection for Site to Site(IPSec) which connects to VMWare-snx
Connection status is "Connecting". (Also connection from VMWare SNX side)
I have VM in subnet. VNet is same as with Gateway Subnet.
I try to ping or RDP to VM in VMWare side, but do not have connection.
Did I understand correctly that I should have automatically connection from all subnet in VNet.
No routing is needed between Gateway Subnet and others?
Is there any way to troubleshoot if ping passed Azure VPN?

If the VPN connection is set up well, the Connection status should be "connected". Please follow the step by step in the article, especially the note things:
NSX VPN as of now only supports Policy-Based VPN type.
PFS: Disable Perfect Forward Secrecy since its not supported with Azure Static-Policy based VPN.
I've got vnet in Azure 10.1.0.0/24. VM connected to vnet directly by static ip: 10.1.0.5 and has not public endpoint. I connect to vnet using VPN and able to connect to VM. That wokrs fine.
I'd created Azure Sql database and want to limit connection only from vnet 10.1.0.0/24 (no public endpoint). So, my VM should be able to connect to Azure Sql and I shoul be able to connect to it when connected through VPN.
How can I configure this?
In this case, if you have set up a private connection to Azure – via P2S VPN, S2S VPN, or Express Route, then you can use a TCP proxy server to forward traffic to the public IP address for SQL Database because the virtual network rules are not supported VPN scenario, read the limitation and this.
Main Steps:
You can add Azure VM vnet&subnet to virtual network rule on SQL Database as described here
Download Nginx and change only the body the nginx.conf file without modifying headers to forward any traffic received on port 1433 to your SQL Database server sqlserver.database.windows.net:1433.
You could read this blog for more details.
I have P2S SSTP connection to VNET1. VNET1 is peered to VNET2. VPN client does not add address space of VNET2 and hence routing from P2S client never works to VNET2. Are SSTP VPN clients supposed to be adding routes for all peered VNETs to installation file?
Yes, the VPN clients will get routes to the direct-peered VNets in the VPN client downloaded file. In this case, you need to configure Hub-spoke network topology in Azure.
To allow gateway traffic to flow from spoke to hub, and connect to remote networks, you must:
Configure the peering connection in the hub(have gateway subnet VNet1) to allow gateway transit.
Configure the peering connection in each spoke(no gateway subnet VNet2) to use remote gateways.
You could get more information from the step by step to work with P2S VPN in a similar scenario.
I have an Azure Virtual network and I connect to the network using Point-to-point with the VPN client downloaded from Azure. This works as expected as I can now RDP to VMs in the VNet if required.
I also have an Azure SQL Server instance and in the firewall section I have added the VNet above to the Virtual networks rule list.
With my work laptop, I was now hoping that I would be able to connect to the VNet using the VPN client and then be able to access the SQL database using SSMS. However, when I try and connect I get a message telling me that I cannot access the server and instead need to add my client IP to the Firewall rule list, which is what I was trying to avoid doing.
Is there something else I need to be doing here to get this working?

If you just use an Azure SQL Database, which is a Paas in Azure, itself is not located inside a VNet. You can directly add the client Public IP in the firewall of Azure SQL Server. Whereas this is not your expectation. You need to make it inside a VNet, then you can do these followings.
If you are using a SQL Managed instance which located inside a VNet, want to access the Database instance from on-premises with a private address, you need to make a VPN connection or ExpressRoute connection between the on-premise and the Managed Instance VNet.
Now, you have a P2S VPN connection, you still need to make VNet peering with Gateway Transit between the P2S VNet with SQL instance VNet. Note: To use remote gateways or allow gateway transit, the peered virtual networks must be in the same region. To do so, make the following very specific changes under the Peering settings.
In the VNet that hosts the VPN gateway, go to Peerings, then to the
Managed Instance peered VNet connection, and then click Allow
Gateway Transit.
In the VNet that hosts the Managed Instance, go to Peerings, then to
the VPN Gateway peered VNet connection, and then click Use remote
gateways.
Once the peering complete, you can check the status on the Azure portal. You need to remove the VPN client and re-download it and re-install it on your laptop, this will make the route update on your client side.
If you've established on-premises to Azure connection successfully and you can't establish a connection to Managed Instance, check if your firewall has an open outbound connection on SQL port 1433 as well as 11000-12000 range of ports for redirection.
