Description

The Add-SCVPNConnection cmdlet adds a virtual private network (VPN) connection to a virtual machine network to establish a site-to-site tunnel from a Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) managed network gateway to another endpoint.

Examples

Example 1: Adds a VPN connection

PS C:\> $VmNetworkGateway = Get-SCVMNetworkGateway -Name "VMGateway01"
PS C:\> $RunAsAccount = Get-SCRunAsAccount -ID "972567d5-96ad-472e-9790-831bae5fd69c" 
PS C:\> $VpnConnection = Add-SCVPNConnection -AuthenticationMethod "PSKOnly" -AuthenticationTransformConstants "SHA196" -CipherTransformConstants "AES256" -DHGroup "Group2" -EncryptionMethod "AES256" -IntegrityCheckMethod "SHA1" -PFSGroup "PFS2048" -Protocol "IKEv2" -Name "IPSec" -TargetIPv4VPNAddress "100.100.100.100" -Secret $RunAsAccount -VMNetworkGateway $VmNetworkGateway

The first command gets a network gateway named VMGateway01, and then stores it in the $VmNetworkGateway variable.

The second command gets a Run As account, and then stores it in the $RunAsAccount variable. This account is used to add the VPN connection.

The final command adds a VPN connection to the virtual machine network gateway in $VmNetworkGateway, and then stores it in the $VpnConnection variable.
