  • Reference
Module:
Az.Network

Resizes an existing virtual network gateway.

Syntax

Resize-AzVirtualNetworkGateway
      -VirtualNetworkGateway <PSVirtualNetworkGateway>
      -GatewaySku <String>
      [-DefaultProfile <IAzureContextContainer>]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Resize-AzVirtualNetworkGateway cmdlet enables you to change the stock-keeping unit (SKU) for a virtual network gateway. SKUs determine the capabilities of a gateway, including such things as throughput and the maximum number of IP tunnels that are allowed. Azure supports Basic, Standard, High-Performance, VpnGw1, VpnGw2, VpnGw3, VpnGw1AZ, VpnGw2AZ, VpnGw3AZ, ErGw1AZ, ErGw2AZ, ErGw3AZ SKUs (sometimes referred to as Small, Medium, and Large SKUs). For detailed information about the capabilities of each SKU type, see https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/vpn-gateway-about-vpngateways/. Keep in mind that SKUs differ in pricing as well as capabilities. For more information, see https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/vpn-gateway/.

Examples

Example 1: Change the size of a virtual network gateway

$Gateway = Get-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -Name "ContosoVirtualGateway"
Resize-AzVirtualNetworkGateway -VirtualNetworkGateway $Gateway -GatewaySku "Basic"

This example changes the size of a virtual network gateway named ContosoVirtualGateway. The first command creates an object reference to ContosoVirtualGateway; this object reference is stored in a variable named $Gateway. The second command then uses the Resize-AzVirtualNetworkGateway cmdlet to set the GatewaySku property to Basic.

You cannot resize from Basic/Standard/HighPerformance SKUs to the new VpnGw1/VpnGw2/VpnGw3 SKUs. Further resize is not allowed from/to VpnGw1AZ/VpnGw2AZ/VpnGw3AZ or ErGw1AZ/ErGw2AZ/ErGw3AZ. Resize is allowed only within the SKU 'series' e.g VpnGw1AZ can be resized to/from VpnGw2AZ/VpnGw3AZ and ErGw1AZ can be resized to/from ErGw2AZ/ErGw3AZ.
