This video was intended to show User Defined Routes (UDRs) and a few items were added on to demonstrate how they work. It starts with some Azure Networking Basics and then we review a hub and spoke network. From there, A Windows Server with Routing and Remote Access Services (RRAS) is configured as a Network Virtual Appliance (NVA) to route traffic between the spokes in the network. UDRs are configured on the spoke subnets that send inter-spoke traffic to the NVA. After that, we add a firewall into the network and direct internet traffic to the firewall with a default route in the UDR.
