Hi @NSA
In response to your questions,
- You can connect to multiple sites by using Windows PowerShell and the Azure REST APIs. Please refer the document: Hosting multiple sites by using Vnet to Vnet.
- The behavior is expected for policy-based VPN gateways. When the traffic over the tunnel is idle for more than five minutes, the tunnel is torn down.
When traffic starts flowing in either direction, the tunnel is re-established immediately. Please refer the document.
I hope this has been helpful!
