Hi,

We are attempting to create VPN Basic SKU. We acknowledge that VPN basic SKU can no longer be invoked from portal. However, according to Microsoft, it is still possible to create using Powershell.

Since Basic SKU Public IP address will be retired on 30 September 2025, we wish to create Basic VPN SkU via powershell but using Standard Public IP SKU.

However, Basic SKU VPN gateway uses a Basic SKU public IP address, not Standard.

From Microsoft statement "We're working on adding support for Standard SKU public IP addresses for the Basic SKU"

  1. Our question is, when would it be possible to create Basic VPN using standard public IP?
  2. Is it possible to create Azure Basic VPN using standard IP address SKU via Powershell?
  3. For existing Basic VPN, will it be effected by 30 September 2025 or will the basic public IP automaticallyupgraded to standard public IP?

    Hi Rusydan,

    Responding your question one at a time :

    • When would it be possible to create Basic VPN using Standard Public IP?

    As I know, Microsoft has not provided a specific timeline for when support for Standard SKU public IP addresses for the Basic VPN SKU will be available. They have mentioned that they are working on adding this support.

    • Is it possible to create Azure Basic VPN using Standard IP address SKU via PowerShell?

    Currently, it is not possible to create a Basic VPN SKU using a Standard Public IP address. The Basic VPN SKU requires a Basic SKU public IP address.

    • For existing Basic VPN, will it be affected by 30 September 2025 or will the Basic public IP automatically be upgraded to Standard public IP?

    Microsoft recommend upgrading to Standard SKU public IP addresses before this date to avoid any service disruptions . However, there is no automatic upgrade process in place, so you will need to manually upgrade the public IP addresses associated with your VPN gateways.
