Did the deadline for the basic IP migration change to January 2026?
Asked by

I heard that the deadline for migrating from basic to standard IP on VPN Gateways might have been extended to January 2026. Is that correct?
Answers
Just to add, I think they only moved the deprecation deadline for Basic SKU public IPs tied directly to VPN Gateways, not for all of them. So it’s a targeted change!

Yes, you're right! The deprecation deadline for Gen 1 VPN Gateways is indeed the end of this month. Starting September 30, Azure will automatically upgrade all Standard and High Performance tiers to vpngw1AZ, but basic IPs will still be linked afterwards. Once you're on Gen 2, you can use their migration tool to switch your IP to the Standard SKU.
QueryMaster23: So just to clarify, are all Basic SKU IPs being upgraded automatically, or is it specifically for VPN Gateways?
TechWhiz90: Yep, it's specifically for the VPN Gateways only!
