Does the region where we put this affect the latency from on-premise?
Say we have virtual machines with azure vpn gateway set to West Europe.
We move our VMs to Norway east to lower the latency.
Should we also redeploy/move the azure vpn gateway?

    Hi,

    The data path will be as follows:

    On-Prem --> Azure VPN Gateway (West Europe) --> VMs in Norway

    Return traffic :

    VMs from Norway --> Azure VPN gateway (West Europe) --> On-Prem

    I assume that you use VNET peering between VNETs in West Europe and Norway VNET which will definitely adds up latency.

    Recommendation is to delete and create a VPN gateway in Norway VNET.
