Answer: We create a VPN gateway.

Step 1:

On the left side of the portal page, click + and type ‘Virtual Network Gateway’ in search. In Results, locate and click Virtual network gateway.

Step 2:

At the bottom of the ‘Virtual network gateway’ page, click Create. This opens the Create virtual network gateway page.

Step 3:

On the Create virtual network gateway page, specify the values for your virtual network gateway. Gateway type: Select VPN. VPN gateways use the virtual network gateway type VPN.

Virtual network: Choose the existing virtual network VNET01-USEA2

Gateway subnet address range: You will only see this setting if you did not previously create a gateway subnet for your virtual network.

Step 4:

Select the default values for the other setting, and click create.

The settings are validated and you’ll see the "Deploying Virtual network gateway" tile on the

dashboard. Creating a gateway can take up to 45 minutes.

Note: This task may take a very long time to complete. You do NOT need to wait for the deployment to complete this task successfully.
