Question
Your company has a single on-premises datacenter in Washington DC. The East US Azure region has a peering location in Washington DC.
The company only has Azure resources in the East US region.
You need to implement ExpressRoute to support up to 1 Gbps. You must use only ExpressRoute Unlimited data plans. The solution must minimize costs.
Which type of ExpressRoute circuits should you create?
- A. ExpressRoute Local Correct
- B. ExpressRoute Direct
- C. ExpressRoute Premium
- D. ExpressRoute Standard
Explanation
ExpressRoute Local gives access only to the Azure region or regions in the same metro as the peering location, which is all this company needs because its resources are only in East US and the peering location is in Washington DC. Its price already includes data transfer, so it is the cheapest way to get an unlimited data plan. Standard and Premium unlimited circuits cost more because they reach a whole geopolitical area or every region. ExpressRoute Direct gives you dedicated 10 Gbps or 100 Gbps ports, far more than the 1 Gbps needed.
