Secured Virtual WAN Hub with Terraform

How to deploy & configure Secured Virtual Hub using Terraform

Introduction

This post details configuration for implementing Secured Virtual Hubs using Terraform. Configuration detailed below uses Firewall Manager for implementing Internet Traffic and Private Traffic filtering. There are other methods for implementing traffic filter using Virtual WAN route tables which is not covered in this post. Firewall Manager provides easiest and the most simpliest method for implementing Internet and Private traffic filtering.

Firewall Manager presentes options to configure Secured Virtual HUBs to filter Internet and Private Traffic. Below settings are available in the portal UI. test

Configuring Firewall Manager Traffic filtering using Terraform

Virtual WAN default route table contains special flags to allow above Firewall Manager configuration. These flags are documented in here which can be implemented using Powershell -> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/firewall-manager/secure-cloud-network-powershell#deploy-azure-firewall-and-configure-custom-routing

In the example below we are implementing above configuration using Terraform

below configuration implements both internet and private traffic filtering using Secured Hubs

resource "azurerm_virtual_hub_route_table_route" "fwroute" {
  route_table_id = "${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/defaultRouteTable"

    name = "all_traffic"
    destinations_type = "CIDR"
    destinations = ["0.0.0.0/0","10.0.0.0/8","172.16.0.0/12","192.168.0.0/16"]
    next_hop_type = "ResourceId"
    next_hop = azurerm_firewall.fwvhub1.id
}

below configuration implements private traffic filtering using Secured Hubs

resource "azurerm_virtual_hub_route_table_route" "fwroute" {
  route_table_id = "${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/defaultRouteTable"

    name = "private_traffic"
    destinations_type = "CIDR"
    destinations = ["10.0.0.0/8","172.16.0.0/12","192.168.0.0/16"]
    next_hop_type = "ResourceId"
    next_hop = azurerm_firewall.fwvhub1.id
}

below configuration implements internet traffic filtering using Secured Hubs

resource "azurerm_virtual_hub_route_table_route" "fwroute" {
  route_table_id = "${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/defaultRouteTable"

    name = "public_traffic"
    destinations_type = "CIDR"
    destinations = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
    next_hop_type = "ResourceId"
    next_hop = azurerm_firewall.fwvhub1.id
}

Configuring VNET Connections to Virtual WAN

Below configuration can be used for VNET connections. Since we are using Secured Hub Firewall for traffic filtering, we are propagating to None Routetable.

resource "azurerm_virtual_hub_connection" "hub_vnet2_con" {
  name                      = "${var.prefix}-hubvnet2con"
  virtual_hub_id            = azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id
  remote_virtual_network_id = azurerm_virtual_network.workload_vnet2.id
  internet_security_enabled = true
    routing {
    associated_route_table_id = "${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/defaultRouteTable"
    propagated_route_table {
      route_table_ids = ["${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/noneRouteTable"]
    }
  }
}

If there's any need for diabling default route propagation, this can be set by disabling "Internet_security_enabled" flag to false as per my example below

resource "azurerm_virtual_hub_connection" "hub_vnet1_con" {
  name                      = "${var.prefix}-hubvnet1con"
  virtual_hub_id            = azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id
  remote_virtual_network_id = azurerm_virtual_network.shared_vnet1.id
  internet_security_enabled = false
    routing {
    associated_route_table_id = "${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/defaultRouteTable"
    propagated_route_table {
      route_table_ids = ["${azurerm_virtual_hub.vhub1.id}/hubRouteTables/noneRouteTable"]
    }
  }
}
