Introduction

This article explains how to configure an Azure Virtual WAN hub and connect virtual networks to it. The hub serves as a central routing point, providing seamless and scalable connectivity across your Azure resources. You can also refer to my previous article on creating a Virtual WAN: Create Virtual WAN

Step 01: Go to the Azure portal and search for Virtual WAN and pick your created V WAN

Note: After the hub is created, allow at least 30 minutes for the routing status to be fully provisioned. If you attempt to create a VPN site before this completes, the operation may fail.

Step 07: Once the virtual networks are added to the hub, there is no need to peer with each other. The peering is automatically established when they are connected to the hub.

Note: In my case, I do not have multiple virtual networks.

Conclusion

We configured an Azure Virtual WAN hub and connected virtual networks, providing centralized routing and scalable connectivity for Azure resources.
