How to Deploy a CloudGen Firewall via Azure Templates

  • Last updated on

Azure templates are JSON files containing resource descriptions and parameter definitions. These parameters can be passed to the template during deployment either on the command line, through an object, or through a parameter template file. You can deploy templates using Azure Portal, PowerShell, CLI, Rest API, or directly from Visual Studio.

Before You Begin

Deploy an Azure Template via Web Portal

  1. Go to https://portal.azure.com.
  2. In the upper left corner, click NEW
  3. In the NEW column, search for Template deployment. The Everything column opens.

  5. Deploy the template. If the Mode parameter is not set, incremental mode is used.

    New-AzureRmResourceGroupDeployment -Name DEPLOYMENT_GROUP_NAME -ResourceGroupName RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME -TemplateFile YOUR_TEMPLATE_FILE -TemplateParameterFile YOUR_PARAMETER_FILE

 You can now log in to the CloudGen Firewall F or Control Center VM you just deployed with your template.

Next Steps

Configure a user defined routing table for the backend VMs to send traffic through the firewall, and enable Azure Cloud Integration to allow the firewall VM to directly connect to the Azure service fabric.
