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.
