Hi, we need this in the organization ASAP so we started working on some of the resources for Azure Virtual WAN, such as: azurerm_virtual_wan, azurerm_virtual_hub, azurerm_vpn_gateway, azurerm_vpn_gateway_connection, azurerm_p2s_vpn_gateway, azurerm_express_route_gateway, azurerm_virtual_hub_route_table, azurerm_virtual_hub_network_connection. We hope to make PR ready for review early next week.

Hi @joakimhellum-in , have you made any traction here?

[venkybems]

@joakimhellum-in - Any update on the virtual-wan resources?

[mybayern1974]

An update for azurerm_p2s_vpn_gateway that this resource is not functionality ready yet though it's in the preview stage now. The rough estimated date when it could work is going to be around Sep 20, 2019

[skalragg]

Apologies if I should be posting this somewhere else, any timeline on the virtual WAN child functions. eg. building a site to site VPN after resource azurerm_vpn_gateway has been attached to a virtual hub

I can see PR like where it looks like some of this functionality was removed #5004

I would be really grateful if the vwan and child resources were expanded. Thanks

@skalragg unfortunately the Azure API is broken, so the connections functionality ended up having to be removed; however the resource development is mostly done - so once the API's in a good state we can look to reintroduce it; but at the moment we're waiting on the Networking team

Thanks!

@tombuildsstuff Thanks for the quick response! is this the best thread #3279 to keep checking for updates, or should I be looking elsewhere? Thanks

@skalragg for now, I'd suggest subscribing to this issue as the best place to ask, since we can run the tests to confirm this has been fixed

Hi @tombuildsstuff
Any feedback from the network team in relation to when this may be resolved. Many thanks

[LaurentLesle]

@tombuildsstuff are you saying it is broken with the version 2019-11-01 of the networking sdk?

[tombuildsstuff]

@LaurentLesle last time we took a look at this (November/December) the API (2019-09-01) was broken so this ended up having to be reverted. The original work can be found in this commit (this is intentionally split-out rather than in-lined) but unfortunately we've not tested 2019-11-01 yet

[skalragg]

@tombuildsstuff any timeline for retesting / or is there any way to use the previous commit
Thanks

@tombuildsstuff - Hi Tom, imagine you are super busy but was wondering if there were any updates on Azure Virtual WAN deployments?

Would this also include the ability to create 'Virtual network connections' from the HUB to a different VNet?

Thanks for all your support!

[jturver1]

It would also be great if the VWAN capability will include the "Secure Virtual Hub" Firewall Manager integration for deployment of an embedded (vs. NVA) Azure Firewall into VWAN hubs, and subsequent management of firewall policy via Azure Firewall Manager (currently preview).

This is not GA yet (I'm guessing it will be soon), but it will be a very highly adopted use case vs. traditional VNET hub and spoke models with NVA firewalls going forward.

for 'Azure Firewall Manager' resources see #7319

The Azure virtualwans API version is updated to "2020-05-01" with a few new features rolled out include routing table on the hub/connections. Do it still have the bug in API in 2019? I just wonder if it is possible to implement those features now?

[arnaudlh]

hi, are we tracking the creation of the Express Route Circuit to a Virtual Hub? From the UI, we can connect multiple circuits into the ER attached to the virtual hub, would be nice to support it with TF - cc @LaurentLesle @arnoldna

[neil-yechenwei]

@cidwtz , thanks for your comment. I assume all features of VirtualWans API except Express Route Circuit have been implemented in the latest azurerm.

👋

Since this is turning into more of an open-ended meta-issue (which'll obviously expand over time as new functionality is added) - I'm going to suggest we close this issue for the moment, since support for the majority of these resources are now supported.

For new functionality going forward, including the Express Route Circuit functionality that @arnaudlh has mentioned above, would you mind opening a new Feature Request including the relevant details so that we can track this in a more granular fashion?

Thanks!
