Modifying a VPN Connection

Scenarios

A VPN connection is an encrypted communications channel established between the VPN gateway in your VPC and that in an on-premises data center. The VPN connection can be modified after creation.

If you modify the advanced settings, network communications may be interrupted. Exercise caution when performing this operation.

Changing the PSK only will not delete the current VPN connection. The new PSK takes effect during IKE renegotiation after the IKE lifetime expires.

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
3. Click Service List and choose Networking > Virtual Private Network.
4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Virtual Private Network > Classic – VPN Connections.

   If Enterprise Edition VPN is available for the selected region, choose Virtual Private Network > Classic. Then, click the VPN Connections tab.

5. Locate the row that contains the target VPN connection, and click Modify in the Operation column.
6. In the displayed Modify VPN Connection dialog box, modify parameters as required.
   

   The name of a VPN gateway can contain only letters, digits, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).

7. Click OK.
