In this article we will set up an Azure VM connected to Azure AD DS managed domain and install the tool set required for Azure AD DS administration.

By default,  deploying  Azure AD DS will create a virtual network “aadds-vnet” and subnet “aadds-subnet”

The address space for the aadds-subnet will be 10.1.0.0/24

For the new Azure VM to be provisioned in virtual network “aadds-vnet” create a new Address space 10.2.0.0/24

Create a new subnet “aaddsmgmt-subnet”

In the new subnet deploy a new Azure virtual machine named “AZ-ADDSMGMT01” and join the virtual machine to the domain “idynamics.com.au”

Install the AD DS and AD LDS Tools from the Server Manager and from there should be able to explore Azure AD DS managed domain
