      <title>ExpressRoute guided configuration of multi-site circuits and connections is generally available</title>
      <description>ExpressRoute guided experience for configuring multi-site resiliency circuits and connections is generally available in Azure public cloud. The guided experience makes resiliency the central aspect of configuring ExpressRoute circuits and virtual network gateway connections. Three resiliency options—maximum, high, and standard—are offered. Maximum resiliency offers redundancy both across peering locations and within a peering location. High resiliency offers redundancy across peering locations, but not within a peering location. The standard resiliency offers redundancy only within a peering location. The new experience provides information including distance between the peering-locations (sites) and traffic engineering recommendations to help users make informed configuration decisions. 

Key Highlights:
Multi-Site Resiliency Options: Options include maximum, high, and standard resiliency, each with varying levels of redundancy.
User-Friendly Configurations: Users can configure and connect ExpressRoute circuits via the Azure portal, PowerShell scripts, and ARM templates.
Informed Decisions: Provides traffic engineering recommendations and detailed information on peering locations to aid in configuration choices.
Backward compatible: Supports augmenting existing standard resilient connectivity to multi-site maximum resilient connectivity

Utilize these enhanced capabilities to ensure network resilience with ExpressRoute. For further details, refer to the ExpressRoute QuickStart guides on Microsoft Learn.&lt;br /&gt;Update Type: GA, Services: ExpressRoute, Categories: </description>

      <title>Public Preview: ExpressRoute resiliency enhancements</title>
      <description>Status: In Preview
 
ExpressRoute provides private connectivity between on-premises networks and Azure, ensuring low latency and high throughput. Customers can create an ExpressRoute circuit at a peering location through redundant Microsoft Enterprise Edge devices. For high availability and disaster recovery, setting up ExpressRoute circuits in multiple peering locations is highly recommended. 
 
Resiliency architectures: There are three resiliency architectures: maximum, high, and standard. Maximum resiliency eliminates single points of failure and is ideal for mission-critical workloads. High resiliency, also known as ExpressRoute Metro, offers resilience within the same metropolitan area. Standard resiliency provides built-in redundancy but lacks site resiliency, making it less suitable for mission-critical workloads. Microsoft has developed a guided portal experience to make it easy for you to configure high and maximum resiliency architectures. 
 
Zonal resiliency: Availability zones protect applications and data from data center failures and offer higher availability for mission-critical services on Azure. Existing non-zone redundant ExpressRoute gateways can now migrate to availability zone-enabled gateways. 
 
Resiliency validation: This upcoming feature will allow customers to test site-failover during maintenance or interruptions, ensuring connectivity and validating failover success. 
 
Resiliency insights: This upcoming feature will give customers visibility into the resilience of their deployments. Customers can monitor their circuit and gateway deployments for actionable insights on resiliency. A resiliency index is generated based on the setup, with the highest score awarded to deployments that have undergone recent testing and validation. 
 
SLA Updates: The SLA model for ExpressRoute will be updated to align with differentiated levels of network availability, effective from Oct 1, 2024. Revised SLA levels include 99% for a single-site circuit, 99.9% for a Metro multi-site circuit, and 99.&lt;br /&gt;Update Type: Preview, Services: ExpressRoute, Categories: Services</description>

      <title>ExpressRoute FastPath for UDRs and VNet peering</title>
      <description>This article examines the data flow and performance benefits of Microsoft Azure's ExpressRoute and ExpressRoute FastPath features. It outlines the default asymmetric data routing and the enhancements achieved through FastPath. Key updates and constraints for FastPath, as well as IP address limits and monitoring metrics, are also discussed.

Data flow with ExpressRoute

The data flow between On-Premises and Azure using ExpressRoute is asymmetric by design.
The traffic from On-Premises to Azure transits via the ExpressRoute Gateway, but the return traffic (Azure to On-Premises) bypasses the ExpressRoute Gateway and is forwarded directly to the MSEEs.
 

If multiple ExpressRoute Circuits are advertising identical On-Premises routes and are connected to the same ExpressRoute Gateway, Azure to On-Premises traffic is distributed (ECMP) across the different ExpressRoute Circuits available unless traffic engineering is configured to prioritise one path over the others.


Data flow with ExpressRoute FastPath enabled

Enabling ExpressRoute FastPath allows On-Premises to Azure traffic to bypass the ExpressRoute Gateway, providing improved data path performances.

FastPath on ExpressRoute Direct circuit connections now also honors:

UDRs on the Gateway subnet, configured to route traffic through an AzFW in the hub (or a 3P FW NVA) for inspection: traffic coming from On-Premises and matching a UDR on the Gateway subnet will be sent directly to the AzFW or 3P NVA, bypassing the ExpressRoute Gateway.
VNet peering within the same region: traffic coming from On-Premises will be sent directly to VMs in spoke VNets, bypassing the ExpressRoute Gateway (global VNet peering is not supported).


ExpressRoute FastPath is configured per connection.



This results in reduced latency and the capability to exceed the ExpressRoute Gateway's maximum throughput limit of 10 Gbps with the UltraPerformance or ErGW3AZ Gateway SKU, or the 40 Gbps limi&lt;br /&gt;Update Type: Announcement, Services: Virtual Machines, Virtual Network, ExpressRoute, Categories: Features</description>

Overview
Recently we added new customer configurable toggles for ExpressRoute Virtual Network Gateways and Virtual WAN Hubs, allowing customers to control the behaviour of routing across their ExpressRoute circuits for resources within Azure. These changes make it easier for customers to correctly use the Microsoft Global Network for connectivity between Virtual Networks, ensuring they obtain the lowest possible latency, highest network bandwidth and most resilient network paths.

Context
Using the ExpressRoute Private Peering for Virtual Network connectivity has long been inadvisable. To understand why, lets first acknowledge that Virtual Networks (VNets) are Azure resources deployed within Azure Regions (E.g. Azure East US), whilst Azure ExpressRoute Circuits are resources with a data plane that is deployed within Peering Locations (E.g. Washington DC). These entities (Regions and Peering Locations) can sometimes be close together, sometimes separated by a large geographical distance, but always logically separate locations.

Therefore, if we build an Azure Networking topology that utilises ExpressRoute Circuits for connectivity between our Virtual Networks, we are creating several sub-optimal conditions in our network design, including:

Dependency on Peering Locations for Inter-VNet traffic. If there is an issue with the Microsoft Enterprise Edge devices (MSEE) within the Peering Location, or the Peering location itself, this event can impact not only your hybrid traf&lt;br /&gt;Update Type: Announcement, Services: Virtual Network, ExpressRoute, Virtual WAN, Categories: Management, Regions &amp; Datacenters</description>

      <title>ExpressRoute MSEE hairpin design considerations</title>
      <description>In this article, we will explore the concept of hair-pinning, also referred to as MSEE hair-pinning. This involves a process where traffic from a VNET, connected via an ExpressRoute circuit, exits to the Microsoft Enterprise Edge (MSEE) pop location prior to entering the destination Vnet. This default behavior is observed both within a single region (a single circuit with multiple VNet) and across multiple regions (multiple circuits with multiple VNet).

Important
While this design methodology has been functional for years, it is no longer recommended due to the increased latency caused by traffic hair-pinning to the peering location points of presence (POPs) hosting the MSEEs. This approach also places a significant load on the ExpressRoute gateways for ingress traffic to the destination Vnet.

Note:
Historically, solutions to this approach, which are currently deemed outdated, involved advertising a summary route for intra-region traffic, encompassing the entire Vnet address prefix from on-premises. Additionally, the traditional 'bow-tie' approach was utilized, where each Vnet is connected to the other ExpressRoute circuit, thus forming a 'bow-tie'. For more details on these outdated approaches, please refer to the previous article titled: Common design principles for a hub and spoke.

Option 1: Using an NVA inside Hub VNets

The initial strategy for circumventing traffic hairpinning to the MSEE points of presence (POPs) involves the incorporation of a Network Virtual Appliance (NVA) or a Virtual Machine (VM) with IP forwarding within the hub VNets. Subsequently, each spoke Vnet necessitates the creation of a User-Defined Route (UDR) that points either to the remote spoke Vnet prefix or to the default route (0.0.0.0/0) with the next hop being the hub NVA. This setup ensures that traffic is routed via the NVAs for spoke-to-spoke communication, instead of being sent to the MSEE POP location.
For inter-region flows, the same approach is applicable, with the addi&lt;br /&gt;Update Type: Announcement, Services: Virtual Machines, Virtual Network, ExpressRoute, Categories: Regions &amp; Datacenters</description>
