How to route AVD outbound traffic to vnet in other region

Question

Hello

AVD is not available in my region so I had to deploy it in EU West (my nearest region).

When I browse the internet within a AVD session I have a Dutch IP (Amsterdam) because of this region. Because of this a lot of websites use the wrong locale and shows the website in dutch language.

How can I route the outbound traffic to a vnet in my home region to have an IP address from my country? Or is there any other way to achieve having an IP from my region?

I have a VPN Gateway to my onprem environment. How will this the affected from the change I want to realize?

Thanks for any advice

Hello MSuser0815,

Thanks for your question.

Consider Forced tunneling. It directs all internet-bound traffic from your AVD to your on-premises network before accessing the internet.
