To get the most from this course, you should already have some basic knowledge of Azure. If you don’t have any experience with Azure, then you can take our “Overview of Azure Services” course. You should also have some knowledge of basic networking concepts, such as IP addresses.
We’d love to get your feedback on this course, so please give it a rating when you’re finished. Thanks!
