# Quickstart: Create an Azure DNS Private Resolver using Terraform
16+
17+
This quickstart describes how to use Terraform to create an Azure DNS Private Resolver. Azure private DNS resolver is a service that provides custom domain name resolution for your private Azure network. It's used to resolve domain names in a virtual network without needing to add a custom DNS solution. The resources created include the Azure DNS Private Resolver, a virtual network, and a subnet. The DNS resolver is associated with the virtual network, and the subnet is configured with a delegation to the DNS Private Resolver service.
18+
19+
[!INCLUDE [About Terraform](~/azure-dev-docs-pr/articles/terraform/includes/abstract.md)]
20+
21+
The following figure summarizes the general setup used. Subnet address ranges used in templates are slightly different than those shown in the figure.

> [!div class="checklist"]
26+
> * Create an Azure resource group with a unique name.
27+
> * Establish an Azure virtual network within the created resource group.
28+
> * Define a subnet within the virtual network, and delegate DNS Private Resolver service to it.
29+
> * Set up DNS Private Resolver within the resource group, and associate it with the virtual network.
30+
> * View DNS Private Resolver within the resource group.
31+
32+
## Prerequisites
33+
34+
- If you don't have an Azure account, [create an account for free](https://azure.microsoft.com/free/?WT.mc_id=A261C142F) before you begin.
35+
36+
- [Install and configure Terraform](/azure/developer/terraform/quickstart-configure).
37+
38+
## Implement the Terraform code
39+
40+
> [!NOTE]
41+
> The sample code for this article is located in the [Azure Terraform GitHub repo](https://github.com/Azure/terraform/tree/master/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver). You can view the log file containing the [test results from current and previous versions of Terraform](https://github.com/Azure/terraform/tree/master/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver/TestRecord.md).
42+
> See more [articles and sample code showing how to use Terraform to manage Azure resources](/azure/terraform).
43+
44+
1. Create a directory in which to test and run the sample Terraform code, and make it the current directory.
45+
46+
1. Create a file named `main.tf`, and insert the following code:
47+
:::code language="Terraform" source="~/terraform_samples/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver/main.tf":::
48+
49+
1. Create a file named `outputs.tf`, and insert the following code:
50+
:::code language="Terraform" source="~/terraform_samples/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver/outputs.tf":::
51+
52+
1. Create a file named `providers.tf`, and insert the following code:
53+
:::code language="Terraform" source="~/terraform_samples/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver/providers.tf":::
54+
55+
1. Create a file named `variables.tf`, and insert the following code:
56+
:::code language="Terraform" source="~/terraform_samples/quickstart/101-dns-private-resolver/variables.tf":::
57+
58+
## Initialize Terraform
59+
60+
[!INCLUDE [terraform-init.md](~/azure-dev-docs-pr/articles/terraform/includes/terraform-init.md)]
61+
62+
## Create a Terraform execution plan
63+
64+
[!INCLUDE [terraform-plan.md](~/azure-dev-docs-pr/articles/terraform/includes/terraform-plan.md)]
65+
66+
## Apply a Terraform execution plan
67+
68+
[!INCLUDE [terraform-apply-plan.md](~/azure-dev-docs-pr/articles/terraform/includes/terraform-apply-plan.md)]
69+
70+
## Verify the results
71+
72+
### [Azure CLI](#tab/azure-cli)
73+
74+
1. Get the Azure resource group name.
75+
76+
```console
77+
resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)
78+
```
79+
80+
1. Run `az network dns record-set list` to view the DNS Private Resolver service.
81+
82+
```azurecli
83+
az network dns record-set list --output table
84+
```
85+
86+
1. Run `az network private-dns zone show` to view the DNS Private Resolver service within the resource group.
87+
88+
```azurecli
89+
az network private-dns zone show --name $private_dns_zone_name --resource-group $resource_group_name
90+
```
91+
92+
### [Azure PowerShell](#tab/azure-powershell)
93+
94+
1. Get the Azure resource group name.
95+
96+
```console
97+
$resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)
98+
```
99+
100+
1. Run `Get-AzDnsRecordSet` to view the DNS Private Resolver service.
101+
102+
```azurepowershell
103+
Get-AzDnsRecordSet -ZoneName $private_dns_zone_name -ResourceGroupName $resource_group_name | Format-Table
104+
```
105+
106+
1. Run `Get-AzPrivateDnsZone` to view the DNS Private Resolver service within the resource group.
107+
108+
```azurepowershell
109+
Get-AzPrivateDnsZone -Name $private_dns_zone_name -ResourceGroupName $resource_group_name
110+
```
