The **VPN Gateways** page lists all your VPN Gateways.

1\. In the **DCD**, go to **Menu** > **Network Services** > **VPN Gateway**.

3\. Update the selected VPN Gateway details:

* **System information:** Displays the state of the VPN Gateway, creation and modification details, UUID and the resource URN.
* **Download Configuration:** Select this option to manually download the configuration details of the selected VPN Gateway. For more information, see [<mark style="color:blue;">Download VPN Gateway Configuration</mark>](/cloud/network-services/vpn-gateway/dcd-how-tos/download-config.md).
* **Setup & LAN connections:** You can modify the properties, upgrade from the current plan or change to high-availability or vice-versa, LAN connections, or the maintenance schedule.

**Note:** VPN Gateways do not support connecting to LANs directly managed by Managed Kubernetes. However, you can attach additional LANs to node pools and connect these LANs to a VPN Gateway.

* **Tunnels or Peers:** Based on the chosen VPN Gateway protocol, you can update the details of an existing tunnel or peer or click **Add Tunnels** or **Add Peers** to add a new tunnel or a peer. For more information, see [<mark style="color:blue;">Update IPSec Tunnel and WireGuard Peer</mark>](/cloud/network-services/vpn-gateway/dcd-how-tos/update-tunnels-peers.md).

4\. Select **Save** to update the VPN Gateway details with the changes made.
