azure existing vpn and gateway, add address space

I have an existing side-to-side connectivity azure gateway with one local network having three different address spaces to connect to the intranet of a customer. This is up and running, working like a charm.

Now I have the necessity for a fourth address space. I did add it, closed the gateways' connection and created it again. It doesn't look like the new address space is being considered.

Is it really necessary to remove and recreate the whole gateway, pass over the newly created key to the customer to make this working? I couldnt find anything in the documentation of Azure here.

Thanks for any hints.

Solution

  • Two things:

    1. The gateway needs to recreated, just close/ recreate connection does not help. For recreation of the gateway the new preshared key has to be passed over to the owner of the network again.
    2. the user interface of the address spaces is implemented in a strange way. It only allows the last address to be edited. To edit a previous one, the other(s) have to be removed.
