Customer Onboarding with VMware NSX L2VPN Service : Management Components and Feature Design : 5.2 VMware NSX Component Design : 5.2.1 NSX Edge
   
5.2.1 NSX Edge
For this use case, the VMware Cloud Provider NSX Edge appliance acts as the L2VPN server and on the customer side, the standalone NSX Edge appliance acts as the client. For implementations in which the migrated workloads require Internet access, enable egress optimization on the NSX Edge fulfilling the L2VPN server role. This supports the local routing of migrated systems as opposed to sending data across the VPN tunnel. This allows, for example, workloads on the VMware Cloud Provider Program side of the VPN to access the Internet locally.
