Mapping Aviatrix Standard Gateway Sizes to VM Instance Sizes

On the Cloud Fabric > Scaling > Auto Right-Sizing tab, you can click Aviatrix Standard Sizes to show standard sizing for Aviatrix Spoke, Specialty, and Transit Gateways (AWS and Azure) and how they map to AWS and Azure VM instance sizes. These are the sizes you see when you resize a gateway instance according to recommendations.
