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 export the client certificate from Computer1 and install the certificate on Computer2.
Does this meet the goal?

  • A. Yes
  • B. No
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
Each client computer that connects to a VNet using Point-to-Site must have a client certificate installed. You generate a client certificate from the self-signed root certificate, and then export and install the client certificate. If the client certificate is not installed, authentication fails.

Selected Answer: A
"You may generate multiple client certificates from the same root certificate. When you generate client certificates using the steps below, the client certificate is automatically installed on the computer that you used to generate the certificate. If you want to install a client certificate on another client computer, you can export the certificate." From here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-certificates-point-to-site#clientcert So, A-Yes is the correct answer.

Documentation mentions clearly about reusing the client cert on another computer. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-certificates-point-to-site#clientcert

it might work - at leat until they both try to connect... From a security aspect - copying certificates is pure nonsense....

This will work, I have implemented P2S with the same cert. as for security the replication of cert's are near to impossible so only if you have the configuration and the Specified Cert in your P2S configuration will it work, otherwise, you will have no connection.

What difference does it make whether the certificate is a duplicate? Provided the certificate is referencing the same private key then it doesn't matter. Firewalls, load balancers, web proxies, web servers all do exactly this.

is this correct? I assumed you'd need to generate a new self-signed certificate and not re-use Computer 1s?

I have tested this,re-use computer1, you will always use the installed certificate on Computer1 as this is the certificate generated in your P2S connection to establish the first initial connection. No specific reason I have found that this is the quickest and easiest way not to have issues when installing the cert in the future on other/new Computers.
