Hi There

I understand that one Expressroute consist of two physical circuit.
Then, for case of private peering, two eBGP sessions are configured on this Expressroute, with one VLAN and / 30 two subnets assigned.

In this case, are there any BGP attributes that can be used to implement Active / Standby for traffic from vNet to on-premises ?

I know that it is usually controlled by ECMP.

Thanks

    This is discussed here in the High Availability with ExpressRoute Doc. Using Routes and BGP As Path prepending is the typical way to do this.
