18 | | -Peering Service is a service that intends to provide enterprise grade public IP connectivity to Microsoft for its enterprise customers. Enterprise grade Internet includes connectivity through ISPs that have high throughput connectivity to Microsoft and redundancy for a HA connectivity. Additionally, user traffic is optimized for latency to the nearest Microsoft Edge. Peering Service builds on peering connectivity with partner carrier. The peering connectivity with partner must be Direct peering as opposed to Exchange peering. Direct peering must have local and geo-redundancy. |

25 | 25 |
|
26 | | -When calling New-AzPeeringDirectConnectionObject cmdlet, a `/31` address (`a.b.c.d/31`) or a `/30` address (`a.b.c.d/30`) is entered. The first IP address (`a.b.c.d+0`) is given to Peer's device and second IP address (`a.b.c.d+1`) is given to Microsoft device. |
| 26 | +When you use `New-AzPeeringDirectConnectionObject` cmdlet, you enter a `/31` prefix (`a.b.c.d/31`) or a `/30` prefix (`a.b.c.d/30`). The first IP address (`a.b.c.d+0`) is given to the peer device and second IP address (`a.b.c.d+1`) is given to Microsoft device. |
