 ## Clean up resources
 
 If you no longer need the ExpressRoute gateway, locate the gateway in the virtual network resource group and select **Delete**. Ensure the gateway doesn't have any connections to a circuit.

 The gateway migration experience allows you to deploy a second virtual network gateway in the same GatewaySubnet. Azure migrates your configurations from the old gateway to the new one. Both gateways run simultaneously during migration, minimizing disruption – though brief connectivity interruptions may still occur.
 
 After migration, the old gateway and its connections are deleted, and the new gateway is tagged with **CreatedBy: GatewaySKUMigration** to identify it as a migrated resource and shouldn’t be deleted.

 1. **Validate**: Check that all resources are in a succeeded state. If any prerequisites aren't met, validation fails and migration can't proceed.
 2. **Prepare**: Azure creates a new virtual network gateway, public IP, and connections. This step can take up to 45 minutes. You can specify a name for the new gateway, or Azure will add **_migrated** to the original name by default. During preparation, the existing gateway is locked to prevent changes. If you need to stop the migration, you can **abort** at this stage, which deletes the new gateway and connections.

 > The new gateway is created in the same region as the existing one. To change regions, you must delete the current gateway and create a new one in the desired region.
 
 3. **Migrate**: Switch traffic from the old gateway to the new one. This step can take up to 15 minutes and may cause brief connectivity interruptions.
