Virtual Private Network (VPN) connections are primarily used during partial production failover, though they can also emulate production failover during test failovers by allowing the customer to choose which restored machines are allowed to communicate with the On-Prem environment through the VPN connection. They extend your production network to include devices on the DR side.
In case of complete failovers, the VPN connection is created, but it provides no utility as the On-Prem environment is fully destroyed.
You need to add devices to Cove DRaaS plan to view records under VPN Connections.
