## How does it work?

When you deploy an Azure Route Server along with an ExpressRoute gateway and an NVA in a virtual network, by default Azure Route Server doesn’t propagate the routes it receives from the NVA and ExpressRoute gateway between each other. Once you enable the route exchange, ExpressRoute and the NVA will learn each other’s routes.

When you deploy an Azure Route Server along with a virtual network gateway and an NVA in a virtual network, by default Azure Route Server doesn’t propagate the routes it receives from the NVA and virtual network gateway between each other. Once you enable **branch-to-branch** in Route Server, the virtual network gateway and the NVA will exchange their routes.

For example, in the following diagram:

2324
* The SDWAN appliance will receive from Azure Route Server the route from “On-premises 2”, which is connected to ExpressRoute, along with the virtual network route.
2425

2526
* The ExpressRoute gateway will receive the route from “On-premises 1”, which is connected to the SDWAN appliance, along with the virtual network route from Azure Route Server.

You can also replace the SDWAN appliance with Azure VPN gateway. Since Azure VPN gateway and ExpressRoute are fully managed, you only need to enable the route exchange for the two on-premises networks to talk to each other.
