Hello All,

Answer 1

Application Gateway usage gets charged based on -

1. Gateway hours

2. Data processed

3. Zone - For North America for example, till 5 GB is zero.

If any of these is non-zero, charges will be non-zero.

all gateway hours will be stop ?
data processed will be stop ?

I couldn't find details explaine what this command do

Answer 3

Hi Jakub

As long as the gateway is provisioned, even if it is stopped, there will be a fixed charge levied.

The command is used to stop the application gateway, it will stop the variable usage charges, but if the gateway resource is provisioned and not deleted, the fixed charges will still continue.

I hope this thread will make it absolutely clear.
