Virtual Network Gateway service provided by Microsoft Azure, allows to send encrypted traffic over the public internet between an Azure virtual network and an on-premises location. Applications Manager's Azure Virtual Network Gateway monitoring tool, facilitates the effective tracking of many key performance metrics of the virtual network gateways. It supports both ExpressRoute Gateway and VPN Gateway types.
To learn how to create a new Microsoft Azure Virtual Network Gateway Monitor, click here.
Navigate to the Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Hover over 'Child Monitors' under Microsoft Azure in the Cloud Apps table, and then select the Virtual Network Gateways monitor from the displayed tooltip. This action will display the bulk configuration view for Azure Virtual Network Gateway in three tabs:
The Microsoft Azure monitor provides a brief detail of the Azure Virtual Network Gateway under the given subscription. Following are the list of metrics monitored in Azure Virtual Network Gateway Monitoring in their corresponding tabs:
