No VPN is running from FortiClient. Challenge IS Power BI Service will also only refresh the reports once VPN is active on desktop. Any solution to this? other than I have to go for separate VM and then I request to Network team to wishlist the IP of VM (having static VM)

Hi,

 

I'm not sure but I have a doubt.Why can't you make VPN activate on the on-premises data gateway VM? Are they on different networks?.As per my knowledge there will be a VM for every gateway in the cloud where we add TNS entries or ODBC connections for on-premises data gateway connections.
