Role Assignment
As the next step, you will add Role Assignment to the Resource Group.
The role assignment “Contributor” should be set to the Resource Group since it will allow the firewalls to exchange High Availability information. To do that, follow the steps below:
- Navigate to the Dashboard. On the search bar, search for the Resource Group you created during deployment. On the left panel, select Access Control (IAM).
-
Click Add > Add role assignment.
-
Click Contributor.
-
In Contributor, select Managed Identity, check if you are in the right subscription, and drop Managed Identity. Select Virtual Machine and select HA1 and H2 VMs to provide permissions (if it is already configured through the template, please leave it as the default).
It is recommended that VNet and NSv Virtual Machines be in the same Resource Group. If they are in separate Resource Groups, NSv Virtual Machines must also be added as Contributors to the VNet Resource Group.
