Windows Azure VPN - Comment installer / utiliser Azure Connect

Pour info - il y a un post de blog sur comment configurer un VPN SSTP Fournisseur sur Azure (sans connexion):

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/notime/archive/2013/06/01/how-to-configure-windows-azure-server-2012-as-an-sstp-vpn-provider.aspx

1. Create new Windows Server VM using "Quick Create"
2. The DNS name, username and password will be used to connect to the VPN
3. The public port created by default for RDP is a random one between 41952-65535. But you can edit the endpoint to change the public port to 3389. Go to Virtual Machines, select the VM, select Endpoints, select RemoteDesktop endpoint, click Edit Endpoint at the bottom and change the public port to 3389.
4. Create TCP endpoint at port 443
5. Connect using Remote Desktop (RDP) through the Dashboard

---------- Server Role
1. Click on Server Manager -> Manage -> "Add Roles and Features"
2. Add "Remote Access", include VPN and Routing (needed for NAT) role services and restart
3. Click on Server Manager -> Notifications -> "Open the Getting Started Wizard"
4. Select "Deploy VPN only"

---------- Server Certificate
1. Open an elevated CMD prompt
2. Use SelfSSL (IIS6 Resource Kit, custom install only this component, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/840671 ) to generate an SSL certificate for the SSTP:
C:\>"c:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Resources\SelfSSL\selfssl.exe" /N:cn=<...>.cloudapp.net /V:3650
(3650 == 10 years, "<...>.cloudapp.net" represents the fully-qualified domain name, FQDN)
3. Confirm prompt with "y", ignore metabase error (if it appears)
4. Run mmc.exe, add snap-in for Certificates -> Computer account
5. Click on Personal -> Certificates
6. Right-click on the <...>.cloudapp.net certificate, then on All Tasks -> Export, include private keys and protect with password

---------- Server RRAS
1. Run Routing and Remote Access (RRAS) tool
2. Right-click on the server and then on "Configure and Enable RRAS"
3. Choose "Custom configuration", select "VPN access" and NAT
4. Right-click on the server and then on Properties -> Security
5. Select the <...>.cloudapp.net certificate
6. Click on the IPv4 tab
7. Enter a "Static address pool" for the number of clients, e.g.: 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.1.20 (otherwise the connection will fail with error 720)
8. Don't enter a range that is too short. The OS keeps a lock on a used IP address for a while, so reconnecting often or from multiple devices may use up the pool and the connection will fail with error 0x8007274C
9. Right-click on IPv4 -> NAT, then on "New Interface", select the external interface (e.g. "Ethernet 2")
10. Click on "Public interface connected to the Internet" and check "Enable NAT on this interface"

---------- Server User
1. Open "Computer Management" console
2. Click on "Local Users and Groups", then on Users, double click on your account
3. Click on Dial-in and change "Network Access Permission" to "Allow access"

---------- Client Certificate
1. Manage Computer Certificates
2. Click on "Place all certificates in the following store", then on Browse
3. Select "Trusted Root Certificate Authorities", if you store the certificate in the personal store, the connection will fail with error 0x800B0109

---------- Client Connection
1. Go to Network and Sharing Center, click on "Setup a new connection or network"
2. Select "Connect to a workplace", then VPN
3. Enter <...>.cloudapp.net, name and create
4. Click on Network tray icon
5. Right-click on new VPN connection, then show properties
6. Click on Security, set VPN type to SSTP and allow only MS-CHAP v2
7. Connect using same credentials used to create the VM and for RDP
8. Test your internet connectivity
9. Use a web site that shows your external IP, it should be an IP from the Azure datacenter

---------- SSL Certificate
To avoid installing a self-certificate to the trusted store (or for devices with a locked trusted store), do the following:
1. Open the IIS Manager on the server
2. Click on the server, then on "Server Certificates"
3. Click on "Create Certificate Request" (Certificate Signing Request, CSR)
4. Enter <...>.cloudapp.net as the "Common name", fill the rest and export as text file
5. Buy an SSL certificate using the CSR (cheap SSL certificates start at around $5/year)
6. Once the SSL authority issues the certificate:
a) Install to the server's and client's "Local Machine" personal store as described above, skipping the step to copy/move it to the trusted store
b) Select the same certificate in the RRAS tool, on the Security tab

J'ai vérifié qu'il fonctionne.

À l'accès à la plateforme Windows Azure Connect maintenance, vous avez encore besoin d'un accès via l'Ancien Portail à partir d'un menu sous-élément dans la Console de Gestion que vous pouvez voir si vous cliquez dans votre Live Id dans le coin en haut à droite.

Mais mon préféré, c'est juste à parcourir https://windows.azure.com

Une fois dans l'Ancien Portail, sélectionnez dans le panneau de gauche le "Réseau Virtuel" option. J'ai écrit un billet de blog à propos de ce que vous recherchez, il y a quelques temps (voir ici http://davidjrh.intelequia.com/2011/10/conectar-una-azure-cloud-drive.html et l'utilisation de la traduction widget)
