Microsoft Tunnel Gateway installs onto a container that runs on a Linux server. The Linux server can be a physical box in your on-premises environment or a virtual machine that runs on-premises or in the cloud. You'll deploy a Microsoft Defender for Endpoint as the Microsoft Tunnel client app and Intune VPN profiles to your iOS and Android devices to enable them to use the tunnel to connect to corporate resources. When the tunnel is hosted in the cloud, you’ll need to use a solution like Azure ExpressRoute to extend your on-premises network to the cloud.

Through the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center, you’ll:

  • Download the Microsoft Tunnel installation script that you’ll run on the Linux servers.
  • Configure aspects of Microsoft Tunnel Gateway like IP addresses, DNS servers, and ports.
  • Deploy VPN profiles to devices to direct them to use the tunnel.
  • Deploy the Microsoft Tunnel client apps to your devices.

Through the Defender for Endpoint app, iOS/iPadOS and Android Enterprise devices:

  • Use Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to authenticate to the tunnel.
  • Use Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) to authenticate to the tunnel.
  • Are evaluated against your Conditional Access policies. If the device isn’t compliant, then it won’t have access to your VPN server or your on-premises network.

You can install multiple Linux servers to support Microsoft Tunnel, and combine servers into logical groups called Sites. Each server can join a single Site. When you configure a Site, you’re defining a connection point for devices to use when they access the tunnel. Sites require a Server configuration that you’ll define and assign to the Site. The Server configuration is applied to each server you add to that Site, simplifying the configuration of more servers.

To direct devices to use the tunnel, you create and deploy a VPN policy for Microsoft Tunnel. This policy is a device configuration VPN profile that uses Microsoft Tunnel for its connection type.
