    Hello @ArunJanardhanan-5359 ,

    I understand that you are trying to create a Vnet to Vnet connection between 2 Vnets - one in EastUS and another in JapanWest. But looks like you may have created the connection from one side only and that is the reason it shows "Not connected".

    You need to follow the below steps:
    1)Create GatewaySubnet in EastUS Vnet
    2)Create VPN gateway in EastUS Vnet
    3)Create GatewaySubnet in JapanWest Vnet
    4)Create VPN gateway in JapanWest Vnet
    5)Create Vnet to Vnet connection from EastUS VPN to JapanWest VPN in the EastUS VPN gateway.
    6)Create Vnet to Vnet connection from JapanWest VPN to EastUS VPN in the JapanWest VPN gateway.

    In order for the Vnet to Vnet to be established and "connected", you need to add connections on both VPN gateways.

    Please refer : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-howto-vnet-vnet-resource-manager-portal#example-settings

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