Expert take: what Azure Network Engineer really tests
AZ-700 is a focused Azure networking exam, and it goes deep where a generalist admin only skims: virtual networks and routing, but also the harder connectivity topics — Site-to-Site and Point-to-Site VPN, ExpressRoute, Virtual WAN, and Private Link. It rewards hands-on configuration, because the exam asks you to design and troubleshoot real network topologies rather than recall definitions.
Preparation tips
- Get hands-on with VNets, peering, routing and NAT Gateway in a real subscription.
- Go deep on hybrid connectivity — VPN, ExpressRoute and Virtual WAN — and Private Link.
- Practise network troubleshooting with Network Watcher.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Preparing at a general-admin level and missing the depth on hybrid connectivity.
- Studying concepts without building and breaking a real Azure network.
