I am been stuck in this task for too long, even though I have done all the things right from my end and getting the result as expected, I am still getting the error. Sharing the task and screenshot of my solutions below. Any help from the kodekloud team or community in resolving it is really appreciated!
Task:
The Nautilus Development Team needs to set up a new Azure Virtual Machine (VM) and configure it to run a web server. This VM should be part of an Azure Application Gateway (AGW) setup to ensure high availability and better traffic management. The task involves creating a VM, setting up an AGW, configuring a backend pool, and ensuring the web server is accessible via the AGW public IP.
Create a Network Security Group (NSG): Create an NSG named nautilus-nsg and add an inbound security rule Allow-HTTP to allow TCP traffic on port 80.
Create a Virtual Machine: Create a VM named nautilus-vm using any available Ubuntu image. Configure the instance with the following settings:
-
Size: Choose a lightweight VM size (e.g.,
Standard_B1s). -
Authentication: Use
SSH public keyauthentication. (Please selectuse existing public keyoption, create public-key locally and paste contents of~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub) -
OS Disk: Use a
Standard HDD. -
Networking: Under the Advanced section, attach an existing NSG (e.g.,
nautilus-nsg).
Additionally, configure the instance to run a user data script during launch that:
- Install the Nginx package.
- Start the Nginx service.
Set up an Application Gateway: Set up an Azure Application Gateway named nautilus-agw with the following:
- Associate it with a public IP address named
nautilus-agw-ip. - Attach the backend pool:
nautilus-backendpoolto the VMnautilus-vm. - Select a subnet for the Application Gateway (you can create a new one if needed).
Configure HTTP Settings: Create an HTTP setting named nautilus-http-settings on port 80
Route Traffic: Add a listener named nautilus-listener and a routing rule named nautilus-routing-rule to route traffic from the AGW frontend to the backend pool:
- Listener: Frontend IP = public IP, Frontend port = 80, Protocol = HTTP
- Routing rule: Connects
nautilus-listenertonautilus-backendpoolusingnautilus-http-settings.
NSG Adjustments: Make sure the NSG attached to the VM allows inbound TCP traffic on port 80, so the Nginx server running on nautilus-vm is accessible via the Application Gateway public IP.
Note: Wait for the Application Gateway resource to be fully deployed before proceeding with the next steps. Deployment may take several minutes to complete.
Use below given Azure Credentials: (You can run the showcreds command on azure-client host to retrieve these credentials)
