Azure has two methods for creating resources.
- classic
- resource manager
The differences are documented here:
It is easy to create a site to site vpn with the classic method as documented here: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/vpn-gateway-site-to-site-create/
Classic
Resource Manager
In order to create a site to site vpn using resource manager, you need to setup a "local site". It is documented with the "classic" and with "powershell" but not "preview" (documented here)
Does the azure portal support creating a local site? I'm able to create it from the command line, however nothing shows up in the web interface.
