Bastion configuration steps are not specific to FlashGrid. We are providing them here as an example only.

Configuration Steps:

  1. Connect to the Azure portal and choose the VM to connect to.

  2. From the left panel, choose Bastion under the Operations section or click Connect from the Overview section.

  3. To associate a virtual network with a Bastion, it must contain a subnet with the name AzureBastionSubnet. On the following page, click Manage subnet configuration

  1. Add a subnet named AzureBastionSubnet

  1. After configuring the subnet, click link rac1-vm – Bastion in the upper left corner.

And then click Create button.

  1. Connect to the VM via Azure Bastion

If you have ssh key-based authentication, enter the correct username and choose the right private key file.

Please note that the private key file should be in PEM format. If you get the following error message, it means your key file is not in the correct format:

If so, convert it using ssh-keygen (for Windows PuTTYgen) :

$ ssh-keygen -p -m PEM -f my_private_key

Choose the key file again and click Connect.
