There will be no drops in traffic flow for existing connections on Load balancer. All new connections will use NAT gateway.

Check the following configurations to ensure that NAT gateway can be used to direct traffic outbound:
3838
1. At least one public IP address or one public IP prefix is attached to NAT gateway. At least one public IP address must be associated with the NAT gateway for it to provide outbound connectivity.
3939
2. At least one subnet is attached to a NAT gateway. You can attach multiple subnets to a NAT gateway for going outbound, but those subnets must exist within the same virtual network. NAT gateway cannot span beyond a single virtual network.

When forced tunneling with a custom UDR is enabled to direct traffic to a virtual appliance or VPN through ExpressRoute, the UDR or ExpressRoute takes precedence over NAT gateway for directing internet bound traffic. To learn more, see [custom UDRs](../virtual-networks-udr-overview.md#custom-routes).
