https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/expressroute/gateway-migration You can now migrate an ExpressRoute Standard gateway to ErGw3AZ using Azure's "Seamless Gateway Migration", which deploys a new gateway in the same subnet and transfers configurations automatically.

For FastPath, the options are between A and B, but I'll go with B. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/expressroute/expressroute-about-virtual-network-gateways From the comments, this link that everyone who chose A refers to was updated in Jan 2025 to show that: If you want to upgrade your gateway to a higher-capacity gateway SKU, you can use the Seamless Gateway Migration tool in either the Azure portal or PowerShell. The following upgrades are supported: Non-Az-enabled SKU on Basic IP to Non-Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP Non-Az-enabled SKU on Basic IP to Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP Non-Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP to Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP Also, in this other link updated in March 2025, Microsoft recommends "migrating to an Az-enabled SKU for enhanced reliability and high availability" - which addresses the criteria to minimise downtime. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/expressroute/gateway-migration

Selected Answer: B
B FastPath ->narrow down the choices to A & B. Minimize downtime -> indicate seamless gateway migration, which only support the below 3 cases. But from the question, can't tell if it's baisc or standard IP, so upgrade to az-enabled gw is more acceptable. Non-Az-enabled SKU on Basic IP to Non-az enabled SKU on Standard IP. Non-Az-enabled SKU on Basic IP to Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP. Non-Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP to Az-enabled SKU on Standard IP.

La opción correcta sería A. Ultra Performance. Sin embargo, si también necesitas alta disponibilidad y resiliencia, ErGw3AZ sería la mejor opción, ya que está habilitado para zonas de disponibilidad (AZ), proporcionando mayor redundancia.

Selected Answer: B
Ultra Performance will support the FastPath but I think the criteria "Must minimize down time" implies you need to go with an AZ SKU and ErGw3AZ is the only one that support FastPath
