Due to its limited
scalability and suboptimal performance, support for SSTP will be phased out. We
strongly recommend transitioning to IKEv2 or OpenVPN, which offer
significantly enhanced capabilities—including support for up to 10,000
connections and 10 Gbps aggregate throughput, depending on your
gateway SKU.
Key dates:
- Mar 31, 2026: Enabling SSTP protocol on VPN
gateway will no longer be supported
- Mar 31, 2027: Existing SSTP-enabled gateways
can no longer be used to establish SSTP connections.
Required action
To avoid service disruptions, please follow the instructions to migrate to IKEv2 or OpenVPN before March 31,
2027.
