The following limits apply to Standard and StandardV2 NAT gateway resources managed through Azure Resource Manager per region per subscription. Learn how to view your current resource usage against your subscription limits.
Note
Each subscription has a combined quota for both Standard and StandardV2 NAT gateways. For example, if your subscription has a quota of 100 NAT gateways, you can create any combination of Standard and StandardV2 NAT gateways up to that quota.
| Resource | Standard SKU | StandardV2 SKU |
|---|---|---|
| Public IP addresses | 16 IPv4 addresses | 16 IPv4 addresses |
| Subnets | 800 per NAT gateway | 800 per NAT gateway |
| Data throughput1 | 50 Gbps per NAT gateway | 100 Gbps per NAT gateway, 1 Gbps per connection |
| NAT gateways for Enterprise and CSP agreements2 | 1,000 per subscription per region | see previous column for combined quota |
| NAT gateways for Sponsored and pay-as-you-go2 | 100 per subscription per region | see previous column for combined quota |
| NAT gateways for Free Trial and all other offer types2 | 15 per subscription per region | see previous column for combined quota |
| Packets processed | 5M packets per second | 10M packets per second per NAT Gateway, 100,000 PPS per connection |
| Connections to same destination endpoint | 50,000 connections to the same destination per public IP | 50,000 connections to the same destination per public IP |
| Connections total | 2M connections per NAT gateway | 2M connections per NAT gateway |
1 For a Standard SKU NAT gateway resource, the total data throughput of 50 Gbps is split between outbound and inbound (return) data. Data throughput is supported up to 25 Gbps for outbound data and up to 25 Gbps for inbound (response) data through NAT gateway.
