Spoke to Transit connection

Hi,For connecting the Aviatrix spoke gateways (in VNET1) to the Aviatrix Transit gateways,(in VNET2), my understanding is, it utilizes the public IP address associated with each of these gateways to create the IPSec tunnels. Say this is an Azure setup.In this scenario, even if both the above VNETs are in the same region, there is a charge associated with egress traffic over the public IPs.  Is there a private peering option to avoid this charge? Normally, are these IPSec tunnels established over the public (Microsoft) network only (via the public IPs), also is there a requirement for setting up VNET peering between these two VNETs?
