NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

gcloud alpha compute vpn-gateways create NAME --network=NETWORK [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--region=REGION] [--stack-type=STACK_TYPE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

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

Highly Available VPN Gateway provides a means to create a VPN solution with a higher availability SLA compared to Classic Target VPN Gateway. Highly Available VPN gateways are simply referred to as VPN gateways in the API documentation and gcloud commands. A VPN Gateway can reference one or more VPN tunnels that connect it to external VPN gateways or Cloud VPN Gateways.

EXAMPLES

To create a VPN gateway, run:

$ gcloud alpha compute vpn-gateways create my-vpn-gateway \ --region=us-central1 --network=default

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the VPN Gateway to create.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--network=NETWORK

A reference to a network to which the VPN gateway is attached.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--description=DESCRIPTION

An optional, textual description for the VPN gateway.

--region=REGION

Region of the VPN Gateway to create. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:

$ gcloud config set compute/region REGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

$ gcloud compute regions list

To unset the property, run:

$ gcloud config unset compute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

--stack-type=STACK_TYPE

The stack type of the protocol(s) enabled on this VPN gateway. If not provided, IPV4_ONLY will be used. STACK_TYPE must be one of:

IPV4_IPV6

Both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols are enabled on this VPN gateway.

IPV4_ONLY

Only IPv4 protocol is enabled on this 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 vpn-gateways create

$ gcloud beta compute vpn-gateways create
