---

[New Relic's integrations](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/introduction-infra-monitoring) include an integration for reporting your [Azure VPN Gateway](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpngateways) data to our products. This document explains how to activate this integration and describes the data that can be reported.

## Features

Our Azure VPN Gateway integration collects bandwidth and packet drop data from your Azure VPN Gateway service. You can monitor and alert on your Azure VPN Gateway data from New Relic, and you can create custom queries and custom chart dashboards.

## Activate integration [#activate]

To enable the integration follow standard procedures to [activate your Azure service in New Relic](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/microsoft-azure-integrations/getting-started/activate-azure-integrations).

## Configuration and polling [#polling]

You can change the polling frequency and filter data using [configuration options](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/integrations/new-relic-integrations/getting-started/configure-polling-frequency-data-collection-cloud-integrations).

Default [polling](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/microsoft-azure-integrations/getting-started/azure-integration-polling) information for the Azure VPN Gateways integration:

-   New Relic polling interval: 5 minutes

## Find and use data [#find-data]

To find your integration data, go to **[one.newrelic.com > All capabilities](https://one.newrelic.com/all-capabilities) > Infrastructure > Azure** and select an integration.

Data is attached to the following [event type](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/data-apis/understand-data/new-relic-data-types/#event-data):

| Entity     | Event Type                         | Provider                     |
| ---------- | ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| VPNGateway | `AzureVpnGatewaysVPNGatewaySample` | `AzureVpnGatewaysVPNGateway` |

For more on how to use your data, see [Understand and use integration data](https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/integrations/find-use-infrastructure-integration-data).

## Metric data [#metrics]
