If you want, you can take a look at it over here: Azure Bastion: Upgrade Basic SKU to Standard SKU with Azure PowerShell * In a previous blog post, I already wrote an Azure PowerShell script that upgrades a bastion host from the Basic SKU to the Standard SKU. These days, you can easily upgrade from the Basic SKU to the Standard SKU in the Azure Portal or with Azure PowerShell*.

The Standard SKU enables premium features, like host scaling, specifying custom inbound ports when using Azure Bastion, etc.

The Basic SKU provides basic functionality, which enables Azure Bastion to manage RDP/SSH connectivity to virtual machines (VMs) without exposing public IP addresses (PIP) on any of those VMs.

This blog post will show you how you can switch Azure Bastion from the Standard SKU to the Basic SKU (Tier) via the use of an Azure PowerShell script.Ĭurrently, Azure Bastion is available in two SKUs: Basic and Standard.
