# Ensure app is integrated with a virtual network

## Description

Integrate App Service apps with a virtual network to enable access to resources in or through a non-internet-routable virtual network.

## Rationale

Integrate App Service apps with a virtual network for increased security and control.

## Impact

Additional configuration may be required to ensure that traffic is routed properly.

## Audit Procedure

### Using Azure Portal

1. Go to `App Services`.
2. Click the name of an app.
3. Under `Settings`, click `Networking`.
4. Under `Outbound traffic configuration`, next to `Virtual network integration`, ensure that a virtual network and subnet name are displayed.
5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each app.

### Using Azure CLI

Run the following command to list apps:

```
az webapp list
```

For each app, run the following command to get the virtual network subnet ID:

```
az webapp show --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <app-name> --query "virtualNetworkSubnetId"
```

Ensure that a virtual network subnet ID is returned.

### Using Azure PowerShell

Run the following command to list apps:

```
Get-AzWebApp
```

Run the following command to get the app in a resource group with a given name:

```
$app = Get-AzWebapp -ResourceGroupName <resource-group-name> -Name <app-name>
```

Run the following command to get the virtual network subnet ID:

```
$app.virtualNetworkSubnetId
```

Ensure that a virtual network subnet ID is returned. Repeat for each app.

## Expected Result

A virtual network subnet ID should be returned, indicating the app is integrated with a virtual network.

## Remediation

### Using Azure Portal

1. Go to `App Services`.
2. Click the name of an app.
3. Under `Settings`, click `Networking`.
4. Under `Outbound traffic configuration`, next to `Virtual network integration`, click `Not configured`.
5. Click `Add virtual network integration`.
6. Select an existing App Service Plan connection, or select `New connection` and select a subscription, virtual network, and subnet.
7. Click `Connect`.
8. Repeat steps 1-7 for each app requiring remediation.

### Using Azure CLI

For each app requiring remediation, run the following command to integrate with a virtual network:

```
az webapp vnet-integration add --resource-group <resource-group-name> --name <app-name> --vnet <virtual-network-name> --subnet <subnet-name>
```

### Using Azure PowerShell

For each app requiring remediation, run the following commands to integrate with a virtual network:

Prepare parameters:

```
$siteName = '<app-name>'
$vNetResourceGroupName = '<virtual-network-resource-group-name>'
$appResourceGroupName = '<app-resource-group-name>'
$vNetName = '<virtual-network-name>'
$integrationSubnetName = '<subnet-name>'
$vNetSubscriptionId = '<subscription-guid>'
```

Check if the subnet is delegated to `Microsoft.Web/serverFarms`:

```
$vnet = Get-AzVirtualNetwork -Name $vNetName -ResourceGroupName $vNetResourceGroupName
$subnet = Get-AzVirtualNetworkSubnetConfig -Name $integrationSubnetName -VirtualNetwork $vnet
Get-AzDelegation -Subnet $subnet
```

Add delegation:

```
$subnet = Add-AzDelegation -Name "myDelegation" -ServiceName "Microsoft.Web/serverFarms" -Subnet $subnet
Set-AzVirtualNetwork -VirtualNetwork $vnet
```

Configure virtual network integration:

```
$subnetResourceId = "/subscriptions/$vNetSubscriptionId/resourceGroups/$vNetResourceGroupName/providers/Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/$vNetName/subnets/$integrationSubnetName"
$app = Get-AzResource -ResourceType Microsoft.Web/sites -ResourceGroupName $appResourceGroupName -ResourceName $siteName
$app.Properties.virtualNetworkSubnetId = $subnetResourceId
$app.Properties.vnetRouteAllEnabled = 'true'
$app | Set-AzResource -Force
```

## Default Value

By default, virtual network integration is not configured.
