How Can I change the VNet/Subnet of an existing deployed vMX-managed application?

Hello MS-community,

I'm looking to change my VNet and subnet for the vMX Meraki I currently deploy on Azure. The managed application that links to our Meraki vMX firewall cannot be altered by any resources, as we can do with the standard Azure Virtual Machine.

I need to change/update to a different VNet and subnet. Is it possible for someone to assist me with such a request? Or do I have to redeploy it?

Regards,

SID

    Hello Sid, welcome to MS Q&A

    To change the VNet and subnet for your vMX Meraki deployed on Azure, you will need to redeploy the vMX Meraki. Managed applications, such as the Meraki vMX firewall, do not allow for altering the VNet and subnet after deployment. Here are the steps you can follow to redeploy your vMX Meraki to a different VNet and subnet:

    1. Backup Configuration: Ensure you have a backup of your current configuration and settings.
    2. Delete Existing Deployment: Remove the existing vMX Meraki deployment from the current VNet and subnet.
    3. Create New VNet and Subnet: Set up the new VNet and subnet where you want to deploy the vMX Meraki.
    4. Redeploy vMX Meraki: Deploy the vMX Meraki to the new VNet and subnet using the configuration backup.

    This process ensures that your vMX Meraki is correctly configured in the new network environment.
