NAME

gcloud compute target-tcp-proxies create - create a target TCP proxy

SYNOPSIS

gcloud compute target-tcp-proxies create NAME --backend-service=BACKEND_SERVICE [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--[no-]proxy-bind] [--proxy-header=PROXY_HEADER; default="NONE"] [--backend-service-region=BACKEND_SERVICE_REGION | --global-backend-service] [--global | --region=REGION] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION

gcloud compute target-tcp-proxies create is used to create target TCP proxies. A target TCP proxy is referenced by one or more forwarding rules which define which packets the proxy is responsible for routing. The target TCP proxy points to a backend service which handle the actual requests.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS

NAME

Name of the target TCP proxy to create.

REQUIRED FLAGS

--backend-service=BACKEND_SERVICE

A backend service that will be used for connections to the target TCP proxy.

OPTIONAL FLAGS

--description=DESCRIPTION

An optional, textual description for the target TCP proxy.

--[no-]proxy-bind

This field only applies when the forwarding rule that references this target proxy has a --load-balancing-scheme set to INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED.

When this field is set to true, Envoy proxies set up inbound traffic interception and bind to the IP address and port specified in the forwarding rule. This is generally useful when using Traffic Director to configure Envoy as a gateway or middle proxy (in other words, not a sidecar proxy). The Envoy proxy listens for inbound requests and handles requests when it receives them.

Use --proxy-bind to enable and --no-proxy-bind to disable.

--proxy-header=PROXY_HEADER; default="NONE"

The type of proxy protocol header to be sent to the backend. PROXY_HEADER must be one of:

NONE

No proxy header is added.

PROXY_V1

Enables PROXY protocol (version 1) for passing client connection information.

At most one of these can be specified:
--backend-service-region=BACKEND_SERVICE_REGION

Region of the backend service to operate on. If not specified it will be set to the region of the TCP Proxy. Overrides the default compute/region property value for this command invocation.

--global-backend-service

If set, the backend service is global.

At most one of these can be specified:
--global

If set, the target TCP proxy is global.

--region=REGION

Region of the target TCP proxy 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.

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.
