cloudSwXtch-templates

Templates to create a cloudSwXtch from the marketplace. The cloudSwXtch is deployed as a VM image so can be created with any tools that create VMs. However, to function properly the cloudSwXtch needs two network interfaces and the second interface needs to have Accelerated Networking enabled. Use these templates to simplify deploying a cloudSwXtch since these templates ensure correct setup of the network interfaces.

Install template into the Azure Protal

This proceedure will install the template into a resource group in your Azure subscription. You only have to do this once and then you can use the template in the Portal to provide a simple UI to cretae cloudSwXtches.

  1. Log into the Azure Portal
  2. Pick a resource group to hold the template. You can use an existing group or create a new one.
  3. Launch the Azure cloud shell (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-shell/overview)
  4. Run the following commands. Replace with the name of the resouce group from step #2.
rg="<your-rg-here>"
git clone https://github.com/swxtchio/swx-cloudSwXtch-AzureTemplates
cd swx-cloudSwXtch-AzureTemplates
az ts create -n cloudSwxtch-from-mp-image -g $rg -v 1 -f MPTemplateVM.json --ui-form-definition MPTemplateUI.json

Using the template

Using the template once it has been installed to your subscription is easy. Within the Azure Portal navagate to the template and choose Deploy.

  2. Navagate to the template
    • Find the resource group holding the template then select the template
