Hi All

The break down of steps involved to create a VPN

  1. Create the Azure Virtual Network

  2. Create the Gateway Subnet

  3. Define the DNS server(s)

  4. Create the Virtual Network Gateway ( Route based )

  5. Create the Local Network Gateway (  on-premise vpn address space and also the IP is the firewall’s primary public IP address )

  6. Create the Connection

I've done the following steps and the connection says connecting

Your VPN connectivity is impacted because the S2S VPN tunnels are disconnected
Detail
The S2S VPN tunnels could not connect because of IKE or connectivity issues
Last run

Can someone please let me know what needs to be from the on-premise side ? Should a connection be created ?

Hi, 

Check whether your VPN device is listed under validated list with minimum firmware version. 

Then configure the IPSEC parameters mentioned as mentioned in this documentation: /en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpn-devices#ipsec

If it is not connecting, collect IKE/IPSEC logs from your device where you can get a clue on why it is not connecting.
