    • Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds Azure Virtual Network Gateway Connection resources on your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources may require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

    Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements

    Verify the Azure discovery prerequisites section in Microsoft Azure Cloud components discovery using patterns.

    Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery

    Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Azure - Virtual Network Gateway Connection (LP) pattern.

    Table 1. Virtual Network Gateway Connection [cmdb_ci_vpc_gateway_connection]
    Field Description
    Object ID [object_id] The unique Azure resource identifier for the Virtual Network Gateway Connection.
    Name [name] The name of the Virtual Network Gateway Connection resource.
    State [state] The operational state of the connection.
    Protocol [protocol] The connection protocol used by the gateway connection.
    Connection Status [connection_status] The status of the gateway connection.

    For example: Connected, Disconnected, or NotConnected.
    Connection Type [connection_type] The type of gateway connection.

    For example: IPsec, ExpressRoute, or Vnet2Vnet.
    Install Status [install_status] Install status of the resource. Default value is Installed.

    CI relationships

    The Azure - Virtual Network Gateway Connection (LP) pattern creates these relationships to support Azure Virtual Network Gateway Connection discovery.

    CI Relationship CI
    Resource Group [cmdb_ci_resource_group] Contains::Contained by Virtual Network Gateway Connection [cmdb_ci_vpc_gateway_connection]
    Virtual Network Gateway Connection [cmdb_ci_vpc_gateway_connection] Hosted on::Hosts Azure Datacenter [cmdb_ci_azure_datacenter]

    Key Value [cmdb_key_value] References Virtual Network Gateway Connection [cmdb_ci_vpc_gateway_connection]

    Azure Tag discovery

    The Azure - Virtual Network Gateway Connection (LP) pattern collects tags and populates them in the Key Value [cmdb_key_value] table.

    Table 2. Key Value [cmdb_key_value]
    Field Description
    Key [key] Tag name.
    Value [value] Tag value.
    Configuration item [configuration_item] References the Virtual Network Gateway Connection [cmdb_ci_vpc_gateway_connection] table.
