VPC Peering
- Gateway transit Ref is a peering property that lets one virtual network use the VPN gateway in the peered virtual network for cross-premises or VNet-to-VNet connectivity.
- The transit option can be used with all VPN Gateway SKUs except the Basic SKU.
- You can disable the automatic route propagation from the VPN gateway. Create a routing table with the “Disable BGP route propagation” option, and associate the routing table to the subnets to prevent the route distribution to those subnets.
Load Balancing
- Traffic Manager
- Front Door
- (Network) Load Balancer
- Application Gateways support autoscaling of the gateways themselves, whereas layer 4 load-balancers do not
Virtual Private Network
- Setting up a S2S VPN from on-prem to an Azure VNet requires a Virtual Network Gateway (VNG) and a Local Network Gateway (LNG). The VNG represents the Azure/VNet side of the connection, and the LNG represents the on-prem side.
- If you make a change to the topology of your network, VPN client packages must be downloaded and installed again for the changes to be applied.
- Enabling gateway transit on a VNet is necessary if peered VNets need to use the gateway to get a (on-prem) network.
