You have a computer named Computer1 that has a point-to-site VPN connection to an Azure virtual network named VNet1. The point-to-site connection uses a self-signed certificate.

From Azure, you download and install the VPN client configuration package on a computer named Computer2.

You need to ensure that you can establish a point-to-site VPN connection to VNet1 from Computer2.

Solution: You join Computer2 to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD)

No, joining Computer2 to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) does not directly address the requirement of establishing a point-to-site VPN connection to VNet1 from Computer2.

Joining Computer2 to Azure AD will allow the user to authenticate with Azure AD and potentially access resources that are protected by Azure AD authentication, but it does not configure the VPN connection.

To establish the VPN connection from Computer2, you need to download and install the VPN client configuration package that was generated by Azure when you configured the point-to-site VPN connection. This package contains the necessary settings to establish the VPN connection, including the self-signed certificate used for authentication.

After installing the VPN client configuration package, the user can initiate the VPN connection from Computer2 using the VPN client software. The VPN client will use the settings in the configuration package to connect to VNet1 and establish the VPN tunnel.
