Create or patch an L2VPN session under Tier-1 from Peer Codes (Deprecated)

Create or patch an L2VPN session under Tier-1 from Peer Codes.
In addition to the L2VPN Session, the IPSec VPN Session, along
with the IKE, Tunnel, and DPD Profiles are created and owned by
the system. IPSec VPN Service and Local Endpoint are created only
when required, i.e., an IPSec VPN Service does not already exist,
or an IPSec VPN Local Endpoint with same local address does not
already exist.
Updating the L2VPN Session can be performed only through this API
by specifying new peer codes. Use of specific APIs to update the
L2VPN Session and the different resources associated with it is
not allowed, except for IPSec VPN Service and Local Endpoint,
resources that are not system owned.
API supported only when L2VPN Service is in Client Mode.
This API is deprecated. Please use POST /infra/tier-1s/<tier-1-id>/l2vpn-services/<service-id>/sessions/<session-id>?action=create_with_peer_code instead.
Note:
Please note that request is validated and any error messages returned from validation may include the new VPN path
instead of the deprecated path. Both new path and old path refer to same resource.
Also VPN path returned in the Alarm, GPRR payload may include the new VPN path.
This API is only available when using VMware NSX-T.
