A Message VPN (Virtual Private Network) enables the secure and independent transfer of messages between connected clients and applications within Solace PubSub+ event brokers.
Before clients can publish or consume messages, the Message VPN must be running and properly configured.
Starting a Message VPN activates its associated messaging resources, allowing clients to connect and exchange messages.

To start a message VPN:

In the Message VPNs widget, select the Message VPN you want to start.
From the Selected menu, navigate to:
Status > Start
The Confirm Start action dialog opens.
Click Yes to start the Message VPN immediately, or click Schedule to perform the action at a later time.
(See Scheduling Jobs for more information.)

Once started, the Message VPN state changes to Up, and it begins handling client connections and message traffic according to its configuration.
