Question

What is the maximum network throughput of the instance （Standard_B2s）？

Answer 1

Hi,

There's no documentation of the maximum network throughput for the B-series Azure VMs, this has been raised also over here:
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/8765

and here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/52560/what-is-the-expected-network-bandwidth-for-vm-stan.html

You can simply test the network throughput by following the official Microsoft guideline over here:

Bandwidth/Throughput testing (NTTTCP)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/virtual-network-bandwidth-testing

You can also optimize the network throughput for an Azure VM:
