Azure Networking Cookbook

How it works...

A DNS zone is required to start using Azure DNS. A new DNS zone is required for each domain we want to host with Azure DNS, as a single DNS zone can hold information for a single domain. After we create a DNS zone, we can add records, records sets, and route tables to a domain hosted with Azure DNS. Using these, we can route traffic and define destinations using an FQDN for Azure resources (and other resources as well). We'll show how to create and manage these in the coming recipes in this chapter.
