微软已建议其 ExpressRoute 网关、VPN 网关和 Azure VMware 服务的用户，他们可能会遇到网络连接降级或中断的情况，并难以执行某些网络管理操作。这看起来像是自找的麻烦，因为微软的状态页面称已“暂停与此事件发生相关的基础设施维护活动”。该事件始于 2026 年 9 月 30 日 20:30 UTC。ExpressRoute 网关是一项将本地网络连接到 Azure 虚拟网络的服务，使其成为混合云的重要组成部分。
Microsoft has advised users of its ExpressRoute Gateway, VPN Gateway, and Azure VMware service that they may experience degraded or interrupted network connectivity, and struggle to perform some network management operations. This looks like a self-inflicted wound because Microsoft’s status page says it has “paused the infrastructure servicing activity associated with the onset of this event.”The event started at 20:30 UTC on 30 September 2026. ExpressRoute Gateway is a service that connects on-prem networks to virtual networks in Azure, making it an important element of a hybrid cloud.
Azure VPN Gateway 在本地基础设施与 Azure 之间创建安全隧道。微软将其 Azure VMware 服务宣传为在 VMware 上构建混合云的理想方式。因此，此事件可能会给微软的混合云客户带来困难。撰写本文时，该事件影响 18 个 Azure 区域：美国西部、美国西部 3、北欧、西欧、法国中部、英国西部、英国南部、瑞士北部、东南亚、东亚、日本西部、韩国中部、南非北部、阿联酋北部、墨西哥中部、德国北部、印度南部和 Jio 印度中部。
Azure VPN Gateway creates a secure tunnel between on-prem infrastructure and Azure. Microsoft pitches its Azure VMware Service as an ideal way to build a hybrid cloud on VMware. This incident is therefore likely to make life hard for Microsoft’s hybrid cloud customers. At the time of writing, the incident impacts 18 Azure regions: West US, West US 3, North Europe, West Europe, France Central, UK West, UK South, Switzerland North, Southeast Asia, East Asia, Japan West, Korea Central, South Africa North, UAE North, Mexico Central, Germany North, South India, and Jio India Central.
Azure VMware 服务在最后四个区域未受影响。截至 23:13 UTC，微软表示正在“看到受影响的 ExpressRoute 网关持续恢复，并正在监控此恢复情况以确认其持久性”。该公司还建议，一些受影响的 VPN 网关经历了冗余降低，而非连接完全丢失。“一些支持性网络管理组件未自动恢复，并导致部分受影响区域出现管理操作失败，”更新补充道。
The Azure VMware service isn’t impacted in the last four of those regions. As of 23:13 UTC, Microsoft says it is “seeing continued recovery across impacted ExpressRoute gateways and are monitoring this recovery to confirm that it remains durable.”The company also advised that some affected VPN Gateways have experienced reduced redundancy rather than a complete loss of connectivity. “Some supporting network management components have not recovered automatically and are contributing to management operation failures in a subset of affected regions,” the update adds.
“工程团队正在利用可用的备用健康实例积极恢复这些组件。”微软不知道发生了什么，也不清楚原因，但表示其调查“继续显示此事件与基础设施操作系统服务活动之间存在关联。”我们将在微软发布更多信息后更新此报道。®
“Engineering teams are actively restoring these components using alternate healthy instances where available.”Microsoft doesn’t know what happened, or why, but says its investigation “continues to show a correlation between this event and infrastructure operating system servicing activity.”The will update this story as Microsoft releases more information. ®
