Hello Everyone,

I am exploring options to route on-premises internet traffic through an Aviatrix NAT Gateway. Currently, we are using a third-party firewall deployed on AWS to handle NAT for our on-premises traffic.

I would like to know if it is feasible to replace the existing third-party firewall with an Aviatrix NAT Gateway for this purpose. Any insights, recommendations, or experiences with such a setup would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

yes, you can do that. to control ingress or egress traffic flow to/from on-premises . and cost optimize by not using cloud provider Nat gateways which add security and visibility to hole traffic flow path.

Thanks for your sharing. Currently we are using Aviatrix NAT Gateway Solution on Our Cloud Environment. I want to setup our on-premise internet traffic through AVX NAT Gateway. If we can setup this, could you please share some information. Thanks.


on premise you can use aviatrix security edge which act as a spoke. you can enable Nat feature   for internet traffic. 

aviatrix security edge has 3 interfaces 

 wan interface(eth0) = which connect to your on-premises Wan router

Lan interface(eth1) = which connect to network infrastructure of on premise by Bgp session

management interface(eth2) = which connect to your controller

you can integrate with   Equinix and megaport platform for hybrid connectivity

Dear Mohammed Banabila,

Thank you for sharing the documentation—it has been very helpful. I would like to confirm one detail: If I intend to use the Edge Gateway for Internet traffic, is it necessary to also utilize the Aviatrix Transit Gateway?

I appreciate your clarification on this matter.

.


when you deploy the edge gateway to   your on-premises, it requires you to do attachment edge gateway with aviatrix transit gateway. through Copilot dashboard. the controller will do   management of the traffic, also 

the routes   from edge gateway at on-premises to your cloud provider infrastructure. which the traffic be encrypted   by high performance encryption that be end to end encryption to/from on-premises
