NAME

gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create - create a new Compute Engine external VPN gateway

SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create NAME --interfaces=[ID=IP_ADDRESS,...] [--description=DESCRIPTION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

(ALPHA) gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create creates a new external VPN gateway.

External VPN gateway is the on-premises VPN gateway or another cloud provider's VPN gateway that connects to your Google Cloud VPN gateway. To create a highly available VPN from Google Cloud to your on-premises side or another Cloud provider's VPN gateway, you must create an external VPN gateway resource in Google Cloud, which provides the information to Google Cloud about your external VPN gateway.

EXAMPLES

To create an external VPN gateway, run:

$ gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create \ my-external-gateway --interfaces=0=8.9.9.9

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the external VPN gateway to create.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--interfaces=[ID=IP_ADDRESS,...]

Map of interfaces from interface ID to interface IP address for the External VPN Gateway.

There can be one, two, or four interfaces in the map.

For example, to create an external VPN gateway with one interface:

$ gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create \ MY-EXTERNAL-GATEWAY --interfaces 0=8.9.9.9

To create an external VPN gateway with two interfaces: $ gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create \ MY-EXTERNAL-GATEWAY --interfaces 0=8.9.9.9,1=8.9.9.10

To create an external VPN gateway with four interfaces: $ gcloud alpha compute external-vpn-gateways create \ MY-EXTERNAL-GATEWAY \ --interfaces 0=8.9.9.9,1=8.9.9.10,2=8.9.9.11,3=8.9.9.12

Note that the redundancy type of the gateway will be automatically inferred based on the number of interfaces provided:

1 interface: `SINGLE_IP_INTERNALLY_REDUNDANT`

2 interfaces: `TWO_IPS_REDUNDANCY`

4 interfaces: `FOUR_IPS_REDUNDANCY`

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--description=DESCRIPTION

Textual description of the External VPN Gateway.

GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS

These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.

Run $ gcloud help for details.

NOTES

This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. These variants are also available:

$ gcloud compute external-vpn-gateways create

$ gcloud beta compute external-vpn-gateways create
