Auto Disconnect P2S VPN Connections

Question

Hello,

I am trying to setup the ability to disconnect users on an Azure VWan, Hub, P2S session. This can be manually done by going to the Point to Site Sessions page and manually disconnecting it. However, this is not ideal for trying to disconnect users after 24 hours. I wanted to automate this using the Disconnect-AzVirtualNetworkGatewayVpnConnection powershell command. However, that only works on Network Gateways and does not appear to support P2S gateways inside of an Azure Virtual Hub. Is there a way to disconnect users after 24 hours of being connected to a session whether it be through powershell or some configuration settings?

@Trent Becker ,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & I hope you are doing well.

I understand that you would like to know the equivalent of Disconnect-AzVirtualNetworkGatewayVpnConnection for Azure vWAN P2S Gateway.

You can use this : Disconnect-AzP2SVpnGatewayVpnConnection

• The syntax is similar to regular VPN Gateway's P2S.

Kindly let us know if this helps or you need further assistance on this issue.

Thanks,

Kapil

Regarding your question on how you can automate the disconnection of users after 24 hours on an Azure VWan Hub P2S session, have you tried a combination of Azure Functions and PowerShell?
