Create Virtual Network and subnet using Azure CLI

How to create a Virtual Network and subnet using Azure CLI

Create resource group using az group create

# Define resource group variables for name and location 
rgName=prod-ukw-core-rg
rgLocation=ukwest 

# Create resource group and output results in a table 
az group create --name $rgName --location $rgLocation --output table
 

Create virtual network and subnet using az network vnet create

This example will create a VNet with an address space of 192.168.2.0/24 and a subnet of 192.168.2.0/27, which will allow 27 usable IP addresses.

# Define vnet variables
VnetName=prod-ukw-core-vnet
RgName=prod-ukw-core-rg
SubnetName=subnet01
AddressPrefix=192.168.2.0/24
SubnetPrefix=192.168.2.0/27

az network vnet create \
  --name $VnetName \
  --resource-group $RgName \
  --subnet-name $SubnetName \
  --address-prefix $AddressPrefix \
  --subnet-prefix $SubnetPrefix
