# Quickstart: Create an Azure Virtual Network
15+
16+
In this quickstart, learn how to create an Azure Virtual Network (VNet) using the Azure portal, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, Resource Manager template, Bicep template, and Terraform. Two virtual machines and an Azure Bastion host are deployed to test connectivity between the virtual machines in the same virtual network. The Azure Bastion host facilitates secure and seamless RDP and SSH connectivity to the virtual machines directly in the Azure portal over SSL.

A virtual network is the fundamental building block for private networks in Azure. Azure Virtual Network enables Azure resources like VMs to securely communicate with each other and the internet.

## Connect to a virtual machine
78+
79+
1. In the portal, search for and select **Virtual machines**.
80+

85+
1. On the **Connect to virtual machine** page, select the **Bastion** tab.
86+
87+
1. Select **Use Bastion**.
88+
89+
1. Enter the username and password that you created when you created the VM, and then select **Connect**.
