-Interface VPC endpoints are powered by AWS PrivateLink, a feature that enables private communication between AWS services using private IP addresses. To use AWS PrivateLink, create an interface VPC endpoint for Amazon EFS in your VPC using the Amazon VPC console, API, or CLI.

You can also access a VPC endpoint from on-premises environments or from other VPCs using AWS VPN, Direct Connect, or VPC peering.
