For better data path performance enable FastPath on ExpressRoute Connections
Impact: Medium Category: Scalability
APRL GUID: f6a14b32-a727-4ace-b5fa-7b1c6bdff402
Description:
ExpressRoute gateways facilitate network traffic and route exchanges. FastPath enhances on-premises to virtual network data path performance by directing traffic straight to virtual machines, bypassing the gateway for improved resiliency through reduced gateway utilization.
Potential Benefits:
Enhances speed and resiliency
