Azure 仮想ネットワークゲートウェイとパブリックIPアドレスのBasic SKUは2025年3月31日以降作成できなくりますか (Will I not be able to create Basic SKUs for Azure virtual network gateways and public IP addresses after March 31, 2025?)

Question

AzureのパブリックIPアドレス Basic SKUサービスが2025年9月30日で終了しますが、

仮想ネットワークゲートウェイのBasic SKUは以降も継続して利用可能でしょうか。

現在、仮想ネットワークゲートウェイのBasic SKUでは、パブリックIPアドレスはBasic SKUしか選べません。

2025年3月31日以降は新しくパブリックIPアドレスはBasic SKUで作成できなくなるので、同時に仮想ネットワークゲートウェイのBasic SKUも作成できなくなるのでしょうか？

2025年3月31日までの間に仮想ネットワークゲートウェイのサービスに変更があるのでしょうか。

Azure's public IP address Basic SKU service will end on September 30, 2025.

Will the Virtual Network Gateway Basic SKU continue to be available?

Currently, the Basic SKU of the virtual network gateway only allows you to select the Basic SKU as the public IP address.

After March 31, 2025, new public IP addresses cannot be created in Basic SKUs, so will it be possible to create Basic SKUs for virtual network gateways at the same time?

Will there be any changes to the virtual network gateway service before March 31, 2025?

Hello @tdc-cs ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Platform. Thank you for reaching out & hope you are doing well.

I understand that you would like to know if you will be able to create Basic SKU Azure virtual network gateways and public IP addresses after March 31, 2025 and will there be any changes to the virtual network gateway service before March 31, 2025.

As published in the official announcement of Azure updates,

On 30 September 2025, Basic SKU public IP addresses will be retired in Azure. You can continue to use your existing Basic SKU public IP addresses until then, however, you will no longer be able to create new ones after 31 March 2025.

So, the current guidance is to upgrade your Basic SKU public IPs to Standard SKU before September 30, 2025.

And for VPN gateways, the guidance is as below:

Refer: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/ip-services/public-ip-basic-upgrade-guidance

Currently, recreating the VPN gateways with a Standard SKU IP is the only way but the Azure VPN Product Group team is looking into a better migration strategy for customers (no ETA to share as of yet).

Will I be able to create Basic SKU Azure virtual network gateways and public IP addresses after March 31, 2025?

No, post 31 March 2025, you will no longer be able to create Basic SKU Public IP addresses, and this will also impact the Basic SKU VPN gateways.

Will there be any changes to the virtual network gateway service before March 31, 2025.

The legacy SKUs of VPN gateways use Basic IP and cannot use Standard IPs. This means, we cannot expect Legacy SKU Gateways to work after this. While the official announcements are not yet made, this should give you an idea of the timeline. However, since the Azure VPN Product Group team has not made any official announcement on the retirement of legacy VPN gateway SKUs, it would be better to wait for some more time and see if there are any changes to the virtual network gateway service.
