## Overview

The **Aviatrix Connect Transit Gateway To Aviatrix CloudN** Pre-built is used to connect Transit Gateway to Aviatrix CloudN. Aviatrix Hardware Appliance CloudN allows you to build a BGP and IPSEC tunnel directly to an on-prem Aviatrix hardware appliance. It achieves 10Gbps IPSEC performance and bypasses the AWS VGW or Azure VPN gateway for exchanging routes with on-prem appliances, thus overcoming the performance limit and route limit by these native services. 
The Pre-built consists of a transformation to prepare the formData for the `connectTransitGatewayToAviatrixCloudN` task on the workflow to perform the desired operation.
