Exam AZ-700 topic 2 question 7 discussion

8 Gig Express Route. 2 GB per ER scale unit. Therefore number of scale units = 8/2 = 4 https://www.wwt.com/article/microsoft-azure-virtual-wan-cloud-networking-architecture

Answer is correct. Basic virtual WAN supports Site-to-site VPN only Standard virtual WAN supports ExpressRoute User VPN (P2S) VPN (site-to-site) Inter-hub and VNet-to-VNet transiting through the virtual hub Azure Firewall NVA in a virtual WAN https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-about -------- 8G/2G = 4 Express Route Scale Units and Connectivity: Similar in concept to VPN scale units, customers seeking to deploy Express Route connectivity into their Virtual WAN Hubs will incur costs for the scale units provisioned in that hub, with options ranging from 1 to 10 with each representing 2Gbps of ER throughput. https://www.wwt.com/article/microsoft-azure-virtual-wan-cloud-networking-architecture

Given answer is correct

The given answer is correct, Basic WANs don't support expressroutes

this is on my exam today 8/23

this is where you'll see the scale unit for ExpressRoute and VPN. 1 scale unit of VPN = 500 Mbps 1 scale unit of ExpressRoute = 2 Gbps The requirement for Expressroute throughput is 8Gbps so 4 ER scale units are needed. The answer is correct. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-faq

Correct Answer : :: Standard :: 4

I don't see any reference on Azure Documentation (learn.microsoft.com) talking about 4 Scale Units give 8GB. When I look for Virtual WAN Scale Units, all I find is this doc: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-faq#for-user-vpn-point-to-site--how-many-clients-are-supported According to this chart 4 scale units is wrong. So can someone explain; where did my thinking go wrong.

Standard-Available configurations:ExpressRoute,Site-to-Site VPN Basic-Available configurations:Site-to-site VPN only 1 scale unit of ExpressRoute = 2 Gbps. So, 4 scale unit*2 Gbps=8Gbps

What are Virtual WAN gateway scale units? A scale unit is a unit defined to pick an aggregate throughput of a gateway in Virtual hub. 1 scale unit of VPN = 500 Mbps. 1 scale unit of ExpressRoute = 2 Gbps. Example: 10 scale unit of VPN would imply 500 Mbps * 10 = 5 Gbps. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-faq#what-are-virtual-wan-gateway-scale-units

Standard and 4 Hub Type Standard: Standard ExpressRoute User VPN (P2S) VPN (site-to-site) Inter-hub and VNet-to-VNet transiting through the virtual hub Azure Firewall NVA in a virtual WAN https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-about#basicstandard Gateway Scale Units: A scale unit is a unit defined to pick an aggregate throughput of a gateway in Virtual hub. 1 scale unit of VPN = 500 Mbps. 1 scale unit of ExpressRoute = 2 Gbps https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-wan/virtual-wan-faq#what-are-virtual-wan-gateway-scale-units

Microsoft tryna trick us talking about Site-to-Site which ya'll know is BASIC but then they say ExpressRoute in the next section which we know makes it Standard.
