Examples

Example 1: Get the Next Hop when communicating with an Internet IP

$nw = Get-AzurermResource | Where {$_.ResourceType -eq "Microsoft.Network/networkWatchers" -and $_.Location -eq "WestCentralUS" } 
$networkWatcher = Get-AzureRmNetworkWatcher -Name $nw.Name -ResourceGroupName $nw.ResourceGroupName 
$VM = Get-AzurermVM -ResourceGroupName ContosoResourceGroup -Name VM0
$Nics = Get-AzureRmNetworkInterface | Where {$_.Id -eq $vm.NetworkInterfaceIDs.ForEach({$_})}
Get-AzureRmNetworkWatcherNextHop -NetworkWatcher $networkWatcher -TargetVirtualMachineId $VM.Id -SourceIPAddress $nics[0].IpConfigurations[0].PrivateIpAddress  -DestinationIPAddress 204.79.197.200
