Network Virtual Appliances (NVAs) in Azure Virtual WAN are deployed as Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS) with Virtual Machine instances that have two or three network interfaces. Each interface on a Virtual Machine instance is automatically allocated one IP address. You can increase the number of IP configurations (which translates to number of IP addresses) assigned to each NVA network interface.

* Allocating additional Public IP addresses:

IP configurations are logical representations of the IP addresses associated to each NIC in a Virtual WNA NVA. Each NIC of a Virtual WAN NVA by default has exactly one IP configuration. This means exactly one IP (private or public/private pair) is assigned to each VM instance's NICs. The default-assigned IP configuration is also known as the **primary** IP configuration.

IP configurations are logical representations of the IP addresses associated to each NIC (Network Interface Card) in a Virtual WAN NVA.

The default-assigned IP configuration is also known as the **primary** IP configuration.

You can allocate additional IP addresses to by creating additional IP configurations and associating it to your NVAs NICs. These additional IP configurations are called **secondary** IP configurations.

### Limitations
61
61
62
62
* Each NVA NIC (External or Internal) can have at most three IP-configurations. This limit is to help ensure that there are sufficient IP addresses available in the Virtual WAN hub to allocate to Network Virtual Appliance.
63
63
* Additonal/Auxillary NICs must have exactly one IP-configuration. You can't add additional IP addresses to Additional/Auxillary NICs.
64
-
* Azure Virtual WAN Hub routers initiates/accepts Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) sessions with the primary IP configuration associated to each NVA VM instance. Addtional IP configurations assigned to the internal/trusted NIC of NVA instances can't be used to establish BGP.

65
65
* IP configurations must adhere to the following naming convention:
66
-
* IP configurations on the private/internal NIC must have *privatenicipconfig* prefix. For example *privatenicipconfig-1* is a valid name while *myprivateipconfig* isn't a valid name for private/internal NIC IP configurations.
67
-
* IP configurations on the public/external NIC must have *publicnicipconfig* prefix. For example *publicnicipconfig-1* is a valid name while *mypublicipconfig* isn't a valid name for public/external NIC IP configurations.
68
-
* You can't modify IP configurations on a NVA resource if the NVA is not in a **Succeeded** provisioning state. Wait for any existing operations to complete before modifying IP configurations.

### Considerations
72
72
73
73
* Associating an additional IP configuration to your NVA allocates additional IP addresses to all NVA instances.
74
-
* The primary IP configuration associated to each NIC cannot be modified or deleted.
75
-
* For the full list of use cases supported with assigning multiple IP configurations to NVA NICs, reference provider documentation. Depending on the implementation of your NVA operating system, you may not be able to leverage additional IP configurations for certain use ases.
76
-
* Azure automatically allocates IP addresses to each Network Virtual Appliance. You can't choose the IP addresses allocated to each NVA instance. Private IP addresses are allocated from the set of unused IPs in the Virtual WAN hub address space reserved for Integrated NVAs in the hub. Public IP addresses are allocated from the set of available Azure-owned public IPs in the NVAs deployed Azure region.
77
-
* IP addresses are not preserved. Once an IP configuration from a NIC, re-creating the IP configuration does not guarantee the same public and/or private IP addresses are allocated to the NVA.
