Azure for Saas and Infiniband

$
0
0

Hi,

The answers may be out there but I could not find them in the first few minutes of searching.

1) about SaaS, I am thinking of offering a complex Desktop Application as-a-service (it is not out of the question that it will offer an HTML5 frontend, not yet sure how that meshes with Windows 8 apps and Azure). I don't know if I`ve missed something basic, but it looks like a couple of companies I know of at Amazon AWS went for the following model: you the customer setup an Amazon account, you pay Amazon, if you also pay us our License server we allow your images to run our software. I wanted to have "simplified billing", you pay me, I serve you my image via RDP or whatever, I pay Microsoft. Is there some major stumbling block somewhere in there? Is the scripting interface for Azure, or the provisioning API, mature enough for this to work? I cannot make up my mind if there is a case for Microsoft to attempt to block this business model or not. It is imaginable MS would like only Azure Partners to do such things.

2) Is Infiniband kinda "in there" already and free/cheap and easy, or are there considerable barriers or caveats? I am looking into Azure clusters, but only just have started looking.

Thanks!

 


Cross-Premises Connectivity - VPN Gateway stuck connecting

Hi

Was running throug a breif proof of concept with one of our network guys and setting up a Cross-Premises Virtual Network, following excatly the setting specified in this how to , but the Gateway appears to be stuck in a connecting state?

Maybe we missing something obvisous, but our public VPN and internal DNS were specified, everything else pretty much the same as the article, any help would be great?

VPN Gateway and VM Persistence

$

Hi,  

We are considering putting some services in the Azure cloud.

One concern we have is what happens if we need to change or replace our VPN device?

I presume we can do this by just changing the public IP address for the VPN, which would make the VPN switch to the new device.  

Have I understood this correctly?

Thanks & Regards

Connection between local endpoints of a Point-to-Site Virtual Network

$

My local endpoints do not see each other. In the old Windows Azure Connect, there was an option called: "Allow connections between endpoints in group". Where is this option in the new Windows Azure Point-to-Site Virtual Network? Or, how can I make my local endpoints be able to communicate with each other?

I have one DC in my local network and one GC  and one in the AZURE cloud, I am hosting ADFS and a DC in azure and I just recently started having replication failures to the GC in the AZURE cloud. I receive RPC failures 1256,1726,1727. Replication of the two machines in my local network is successful.

Unable to ping an endpoint in local network from VPN

$

I have created an Azure VPN point-to-point network but am unable to successfully ping the desired endpoint that IT has opened for me. Things I have done:

  1. Created the Azure VPN
  2. Given IT the VPN Device Script
  3. IT has configured their end
  4. I am able to ping the first IP Address successfully

I am unable to ping the second IP Address that was given to IT. Is there something else that I or IT should be doing to allow the service deployed to the VPN to access the desired address?

VPN connected with CiscoASA5505, but still cannot connect machines

Hello all,

It's been a long weekend for me, a dev/architect, not too familiar with networking technology...  I have set up my local CISCO ASA5505 to connect a site-site network with Windows Azure.
After a long period of trial & error, I finally managed to get the gateway show up as connected (and that made me backup my cisco config ASAP :)).
So far, the good news.  I want to connect (ping, remote desktop, http...) from my cloud machine (which is connected in the same virtual network) to my on prem laptop (and the other way around).  I just don't manage to get this working.
I feel it has to do with configuration of NAT or routing, but my knowledge is too limited to get it to work.  I feel I am very close to getting it work, and I hope to get this last piece of help here...

Some information:

  • The following screenshot is the configuration of my virtual network:

  • This is the screenshot of my local network, configured in Azure

  • My virtual machine in Azure has IP address 192.168.10.4
    My local machine at home has IP address 192.168.1.6
  • This is my running Cisco configuration:
Result of the command: "show running-config"

How to reconnect clients to Windows Azure Virtual Network automatically?

I have a Point-to-Site Virtual Network in Windows Azure and client computers configured using the package downloaded from the management portal, running Windows 8.1. The connection can be established only in a custom dialog. When I restart the computers, I always have to reconnect to the VPN manually.

How can I configure my client computers to connect automatically to the Windows Azure Virtual Network after restart?

Need help choosing address space

Hi,

I'm planning to deploy some backend and frontend virtual machines in Windows Azure, these are going to be domain members and I'm planning for a Virtual Network and site to site VPN. My question is regarding address spaces.

Customer already uses several networks internally and I'm not sure how to create two subnets in Azure without overlapping the internal networks. This is what I'm planning and what customer already has:

Is this correct? It seems it doesn't because the address space in Azure overlaps with one of the internal networks. The subnet I create, on the other hand, doesn't.


Did my post help? Please use "Vote As Helpful", "Mark as answer" or "Propose as answer". Thank you!

Network Gateway - Edge Protection

$

For a large enterprise to move into Azure our security teams will be comparing security devices/services that have been architected for internal use to protect internal solutions, with equivalent services from Azure.

As such what is Azures equivalent or method to deliver the same capabilities (I am aware that they may be split between different areas, i.e. the two types of VPN within Azure) as VMWare vSheild Edge?

Below is the definition of vShield Edge, I would be very interested in understanding anything about how Azure provides anything that is similar to this product or the capabilities that it provides?

"VMware vShield Edge
vShield Edge is a network gateway solution that protects the
edges of the virtual datacenter with DCHP, network address
translation, firewalling, load balancing, site-to-site VPN, port group
isolation and other capabilities that help organizations maintain
proper segmentation between different organizational units."

Downloading Point-to-Site client more than once has isuses

I have downloaded the VPN client for the Virtual Network I've built and it works great.  Some of the tablets we're deploying are x86 and the client is installing and working as expected.  When I tested it I downloaded and installed on my system, x64, and it worked fine as well.  Now I need to download the x64 copy again and when I click on it I get the status bar for a moment and then it says it Downloaded successfully and I can click OK.  Only I am never prompted to actually download anything.

I have now tried on 3 different systems running IE9, IE10, Chrome and Firefox with no luck.  I haven't tried Safari on OS X yet but I doubt we'll see a lot of difference.  Is there another place I need to go to download the client on subsequent attempts.  I need help fairly quickly as we're running up against a time barrier and I desperately need the 64 bit client.

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Is it possible to buiding a VPN server by using Windows Azure?

the main problem is I don't know how to open IP Protocol Port 47 (GRE), if Windows Azure support IP Protocol or it is support TCP/IP protocol only.

Thanks!

No connectivity between some servers across Site-to-Site VPN

$

We have configured a Site-to-Site VPN connection between our on-premises location and Windows Azure, and while connectivity appears to work for the most part, we are finding that our on-premises member servers running Windows Server 2008 R2 cannot communicate with our Azure VMs running Windows Server 2012.

Our network subnets are as follows:

  • Local Network (on-premises): 192.168.1.0/24
  • Virtual Network (in Azure): 192.168.32.0/24

The VMs in Azure running Server 2012 can communicate with our on-premises servers running Server 2003 and our workstations running Windows 7. Plus, our two local domain controllers (running Server 2003 and 2008 R2) cancommunicate with the domain controller we've set up in Azure (running Server 2012) and vice-versa.

Our workstations and on-premises servers are all in the same subnet, and all the servers are members of the same domain.  I have tried disabling the built-in Windows Firewall on a pair of the problematic servers (one in each subnet), but that doesn't make a difference.

Is there something else that would prevent the 2008 R2-and-later servers from communicating with each other across the subnets?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Adding a Windows Azure Website to a local domain?

Hello Community,

I'm currently developing a solution for a client and we're looking into deploying their application in a Azure Website instance.  That is, a ASP.NET WebAPI application that will deploy to:

http://*applicationame*.azurewebsites.net

I'm looking to secure this application with Windows Authentication, and wanting to know how to add this Website instance so that it is a part of the client's Windows Domain.  Is this possible?

It appears this is possible with Cloud Services as outlined here:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windows_azure_connect_team_blog/archive/2010/12/10/domain-joining-windows-azure-roles.aspx

Is this possible with Azure Websites?

Thank you,

Michael

Hi,

I have a Virtual Machine in VPN. There is no internet connection on the Virtual Machine, it can be accessed only through internal IP. On the Virtual Machine I am running a WCF which connects to the Azure Tables 'sample.table.core.windows.net'

Since there is no internet on the Virtual Machine, the WCF is unable to connect to 'sample.table.core.windows.net'

Can I access Azure Table 'sample.table.core.windows.net' with a internal IP.

Thanks,

I created a VM on my Windows Azure space, choosing the location of North Europe.

If I look up my IP, it shows up coming from the US. Cannot we specify from which country we want the connections to come from?

Is this internet IP static or dynamic?

Thank you

[MSFT] Azure P2S (Point-to-Site) VPN issue

(Posting on the forum to alert the issue and impact)

An issue on Azure P2S (Point-to-Site) VPN was found last week that could prevent customers from using Azure P2S VPNs.Note that P2S is a CTP feature and should not be used for production workloads.

  • Impact:
    • For the affected P2S VPN gateways (DynamicRouting Gateways), customers will not be able to connect their VPN clients to their Azure VPN gateways
    • The S2S VPN tunnel on the affected gateway is NOT impacted – so S2S VPN tunnels for DynamicRouting gateways will continue to work
    • (StaticRouting gateways are NOT affected by this issue)
  • Mitigation:
    • Customers with affected P2S VPN gateways should delete and recreate their VPN gateways, then download/install the VPN client installation packages again. This should mitigate the issue.
    • The potential side effect is that their VPN gateway VIPs (public IP addresses) may change. If they also have S2S VPN tunnels on the same gateways, they may need to update their VPN configuration to connect to the new VIPs.
  • Fix:
    • The product team is working on a hotfix to this issue. We will roll this out as soon as possible.

Apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Packet loss when pinging one VM from another

I've setup a virtual network with 2 virtual machines: one for running sql server and other for remote desktop sessions. All items deployed on west coast servers if that matters.

For the past 3 days I am noticing that the remote desktop sessions seem to "freeze" for a few seconds every few minutes or so. For example while doing some data entry the screen freezes for a few seconds and mouse/keyboard input seem to do nothing. Then it returns to normal. I tried other ISPs but got same issue.

I am also getting complains from the application that uses SQL server, frequent error messages telling me that the SQL server connection was lost. To diagnose this particular issue I ran "ping -t 192.168.10.5" command and found out that 1-2 packets time out every minute or so:

Ping statistics for 192.168.10.5:
    Packets: Sent = 1515, Received = 1490, Lost = 25 (1% loss),

I cannot ping the RDP/SQL server from the outside but I am sure I would get similar results. 1% packet loss looks insignificant but it isn't, my application is choking every minute or two and terminal sessions are terrible experience.

Can anyone tell my why this is happening and how to fix this issue.
