Microsoft Azure Virtual Network is a fundamental networking service within the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. It enables users to create isolated and secure network environments in Azure, facilitating the hosting of virtual machines, applications, and other Azure resources in a private, controlled, and interconnected manner. Applications Manager's Azure Virtual Network Monitoring tool assists in maintaining the performance, security, and reliability of your Azure Virtual Network.
To learn how to create a new Microsoft Azure Virtual Network Monitor, click here.
Navigate to the Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Hover over 'Child Monitors' under Microsoft Azure in the Cloud Apps table, and then select the Virtual Network monitor from the displayed tooltip. This action will display the bulk configuration view for Azure Virtual Network in three tabs:
Microsoft Azure monitor provides a brief detail of the Azure Virtual Network under the given subscription. Following are the list of metrics monitored in Azure Virtual Network Monitoring in their corresponding tabs:
