3.4.2. Hub Configuration

When you create a hub, you specify:

  • Region: Where the hub deploys
  • Address prefix: The hub's VNet CIDR (managed by Azure)
  • Gateways: VPN, ExpressRoute, or both

Gateway scale units determine throughput:

ResourceScale UnitsAggregate Throughput
S2S VPN500 Mbps per scale unit20 units = 10 Gbps
P2S VPN (User VPN)500 Mbps per scale unit20 units = 10 Gbps
ExpressRoute2 Gbps per scale unit10 units = 20 Gbps

Hub-to-hub connectivity is automatic in Standard SKU. Traffic between hubs flows through Microsoft's backbone with optimal routing.
