#### *Your datacenter connection to Azure region*

[Virtual Network](../virtual-network/virtual-networks-overview.md) (VNet) provides a means for Azure virtual machines (VMs) to act as part of your internal (on-premises) network. You have options to securely connect to a VNet from your on-premises infrastructure – choose an [IPSec protected VPN](../vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpngateways.md) (for example, point-to-site VPN or site-to-site VPN) or a private connection by using Azure [ExpressRoute](../expressroute/expressroute-introduction.md) with several [data encryption options](../expressroute/expressroute-about-encryption.md).

- **IPSec protected VPN** uses an encrypted tunnel established across the public Internet, which means that you need to rely on the local Internet service providers for any network-related assurances.
- **ExpressRoute** allows you to create private connections between Microsoft datacenters and your on-premises infrastructure or colocation facility. ExpressRoute connections don't go over the public Internet and offer lower latency and higher reliability than IPSec protected VPN connections. [ExpressRoute locations](../expressroute/expressroute-locations-providers.md) are the entry points to Microsoft’s global network backbone and they may or may not match the location of Azure regions. For example, you can connect to Microsoft in Amsterdam through ExpressRoute and have access to all Azure cloud services hosted in Northern and Western Europe. However, it’s also possible to have access to the same Azure regions from ExpressRoute connections located elsewhere in the world. Once the network traffic enters the Microsoft backbone, it's guaranteed to traverse that private networking infrastructure instead of the public Internet.
