Need a better definition on what is preferred for ExpressRoute/VPN when HUB routing is concerned. #93304

Closed brmarti116 closed 1 year ago

brmarti116 commented 2 years ago

From this section:

"How does the virtual hub in a virtual WAN select the best path for a route from multiple hubs? If a virtual hub learns the same route from multiple remote hubs, the order in which it decides is as follows:

1) Longest prefix match. 2) Local routes over interhub. 3) Static routes over BGP: This is in context to the decision being made by the virtual hub router. However, if the decision maker is the VPN gateway where a site advertises routes via BGP or provides static address prefixes, static routes may be preferred over BGP routes. 4) ExpressRoute (ER) over VPN: ER is preferred over VPN when the context is a local hub. Transit connectivity between ExpressRoute circuits is only available through Global Reach. Therefore, in scenarios where ExpressRoute circuit is connected to one hub and there is another ExpressRoute circuit connected to a different hub with VPN connection, VPN may be preferred for inter-hub scenarios. AS path length (Virtual hubs prepend routes with the AS path 65520-65520 when advertising routes to each other)."

For item 4, we are receiving volume due to "VPN may be preferred" and need that changed to "will be preferred" or "will not be preferred" or we need a more descriptive definition as to when this does or does not become preferred.
