Virtual Network Gateway

1## Introduction

Virtual Network Gateway is an Azure service that makes it easy to establish secure and reliable connections between your on-premises and virtual networks.

Azure offers two types of Virtual Network Gateways:

• VPN gateway - A VPN gateway lets you securely connect your on-premises and virtual networks over the public Internet, creating a private network that sends encrypted traffic and protects against malware attacks.
• ExpressRoute gateway - The ExpressRoute gateway works with Azure ExpressRoute to provide private connectivity to Azure with high-speed, low-latency network connectivity. When dealing with business situations involving large data loads and the need for a more dependable and consistent network connection, this kind of gateway is quite helpful.

VPN gateways fall into three categories:

1. Site-to-Site gateway - Gateways of this type allow connections between an on-premise network and a virtual network through a VPN tunnel. This kind of connection is made possible by on-premise VPN devices having an external IP address.
2. Point-to-Site gateway - Remote users (or) clients can connect securely to a virtual network through these gateways.
3. Vnet-to-Vnet gateway - Gateways of this type allow connections between multiple virtual networks.

Resource Dashboard

A default dashboard with a set of predefined widgets will be available for Virtual Network Gateway resources when associated with a Business Application.

Following is the list of readily available widgets that can be customized based on user requirements:

1. Gateway S2S bandwidth
2. Tunnel bandwidth
3. Tunnel incoming bytes vs outgoing bytes
4. Overall summary
