   [-AsJob]
   [-DefaultProfile <IAzureContextContainer>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Set-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering cmdlet configures a virtual network peering.

Examples

Example 1: Change forwarded traffic configuration of a virtual network peering

# Get the virtual network peering you want to update information for
Get-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkName "myVnet1" -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup" -Name "myVnet1ToMyVnet2"

# Change value of AllowForwardedTraffic property
$myVnet1ToMyVnet2.AllowForwardedTraffic = $True

# Update the peering with changes made
Set-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkPeering $myVnet1ToMyVnet2

Example 2: Change virtual network access of a virtual network peering

# Get the virtual network peering
$myVnet1TomyVnet2 = Get-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkName "myVnet1" -ResourceGroupName "myResourceGroup" -Name "myVnet1TomyVnet2"

# Change AllowVirtualNetworkAccess property
$myVnet1TomyVnet2.AllowVirtualNetworkAccess = $False

# Update virtual network peering
Set-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkPeering $myVnet1TomyVnet2

Example 3: Change gateway transit property configuration of a virtual network peering

# Get the virtual network peering
$myVnet1TomyVnet2 = Get-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkName "myVnet1" -ResourceGroupName "myResourceGroup" -Name "myVnet1TomyVnet2"

# Change AllowGatewayTransit property
$myVnet1TomyVnet2.AllowGatewayTransit = $True

# Update the virtual network peering
Set-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkPeering $myVnet1TomyVnet2

Example 4: Use remote gateways in virtual network peering

# Get the virtual network peering 
$myVnet1TomyVnet2 = Get-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkName "myVnet1" -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup001" -Name "myVnet1TomyVnet2"

# Change the UseRemoteGateways property
$myVnet1TomyVnet2.UseRemoteGateways = $True

# Update the virtual network peering
Set-AzureRmVirtualNetworkPeering -VirtualNetworkPeering $LinkToVNet2

By changing this property to $True, your peer's VNet gateway can be used. However, the peer VNet must have a gateway configured and AllowGatewayTransit must have a value of $True. This property cannot be used if a gateway has already been configured.
