In scenarios where only a portion of the traffic between your on-premises networks and an Azure virtual network (VNet) requires encryption, you can choose from the following configuration options.

To ensure predictable routing, advertise different onpremises IP network prefixes over ExpressRoute and over the IPsec tunnels. Advertise only the onpremises prefixes that do not require encryption through the ExpressRoute circuit, and configure the IPsec tunnels to advertise only the prefixes that do require encryption.

Advertise more specific (longer subnet masks) on‑premises IP network prefixes over the IPsec tunnels than the on-premises prefixes you advertise over the ExpressRoute circuit. Because Azure and on‑premises routers both select routes based on longest prefix match (LPM), these more specific prefixes learned through the IPsec tunnel will take precedence over the less specific prefixes learned through ExpressRoute. This ensures that traffic destined for those networks follows the encrypted IPsec path rather than the unencrypted ExpressRoute path.

These considerations apply regardless of whether static or dynamic routing is used for the IPsec tunnels.

Avoid advertising the same on-premises IP network prefixes simultaneously over both ExpressRoute circuit and IPsec tunnels. If the onpremises routing policies give to the IPsec tunnels higher priority, outbound traffic from on-premises to Azure will prefer the IPsec path. However, Azure typically prefers routes learned from ExpressRoute Gateway when identical prefixes are received from both connections.

This mismatch results in asymmetric routing, where traffic flows outbound through one path (IPsec) but returns through another (ExpressRoute). Flows with asymmetric transit can lead to packet drops, especially on stateful on-premises devices.
