Creates a VpnTunnel resource in the specified project and region using the data included in the request.

Scopes

You will need authorization for at least one of the following scopes to make a valid call:

• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform
• https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute

If unset, the scope for this method defaults to https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform. You can set the scope for this method like this: compute1 --scope <scope> vpn-tunnels insert ...

Required Scalar Arguments

• <project> (string)
  • Project ID for this request.
• <region> (string)
  • Name of the region for this request.

Required Request Value

The request value is a data-structure with various fields. Each field may be a simple scalar or another data-structure. In the latter case it is advised to set the field-cursor to the data-structure's field to specify values more concisely.

For example, a structure like this:

VpnTunnel:
  creation-timestamp: string
  description: string
  detailed-status: string
  id: string
  ike-version: integer
  kind: string
  label-fingerprint: string
  labels: { string: string }
  local-traffic-selector: [string]
  name: string
  peer-external-gateway: string
  peer-external-gateway-interface: integer
  peer-gcp-gateway: string
  peer-ip: string
  region: string
  remote-traffic-selector: [string]
  router: string
  self-link: string
  shared-secret: string
  shared-secret-hash: string
  status: string
  target-vpn-gateway: string
  vpn-gateway: string
  vpn-gateway-interface: integer

can be set completely with the following arguments which are assumed to be executed in the given order. Note how the cursor position is adjusted to the respective structures, allowing simple field names to be used most of the time.

• -r . creation-timestamp=voluptua.
  • [Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
• description=sed
  • An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
• detailed-status=est
  • [Output Only] Detailed status message for the VPN tunnel.
• id=at
  • [Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
• ike-version=94
  • IKE protocol version to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with the peer VPN gateway. Acceptable IKE versions are 1 or 2. The default version is 2.
• kind=accusam
  • [Output Only] Type of resource. Always compute#vpnTunnel for VPN tunnels.
• label-fingerprint=nonumy
  • A fingerprint for the labels being applied to this VpnTunnel, which is essentially a hash of the labels set used for optimistic locking. The fingerprint is initially generated by Compute Engine and changes after every request to modify or update labels. You must always provide an up-to-date fingerprint hash in order to update or change labels, otherwise the request will fail with error 412 conditionNotMet. To see the latest fingerprint, make a get() request to retrieve a VpnTunnel.
• labels=key=invidunt
  • Labels for this resource. These can only be added or modified by the setLabels method. Each label key/value pair must comply with RFC1035. Label values may be empty.
  • the value will be associated with the given key
• local-traffic-selector=et
  • Local traffic selector to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with the peer VPN gateway. The value should be a CIDR formatted string, for example: 192.168.0.0/16. The ranges must be disjoint. Only IPv4 is supported.
  • Each invocation of this argument appends the given value to the array.
• name=diam
  • Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression [a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])? which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
• peer-external-gateway=dolor
  • URL of the peer side external VPN gateway to which this VPN tunnel is connected. Provided by the client when the VPN tunnel is created. This field is exclusive with the field peerGcpGateway.
• peer-external-gateway-interface=56
  • The interface ID of the external VPN gateway to which this VPN tunnel is connected. Provided by the client when the VPN tunnel is created. Possible values are: 0, 1, 2, 3. The number of IDs in use depends on the external VPN gateway redundancy type.
• peer-gcp-gateway=eos
  • URL of the peer side HA VPN gateway to which this VPN tunnel is connected. Provided by the client when the VPN tunnel is created. This field can be used when creating highly available VPN from VPC network to VPC network, the field is exclusive with the field peerExternalGateway. If provided, the VPN tunnel will automatically use the same vpnGatewayInterface ID in the peer Google Cloud VPN gateway.
• peer-ip=et
  • IP address of the peer VPN gateway. Only IPv4 is supported.
• region=accusam
  • [Output Only] URL of the region where the VPN tunnel resides. You must specify this field as part of the HTTP request URL. It is not settable as a field in the request body.
• remote-traffic-selector=eirmod
  • Remote traffic selectors to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with the peer VPN gateway. The value should be a CIDR formatted string, for example: 192.168.0.0/16. The ranges should be disjoint. Only IPv4 is supported.
  • Each invocation of this argument appends the given value to the array.
• router=diam
  • URL of the router resource to be used for dynamic routing.
• self-link=et
  • [Output Only] Server-defined URL for the resource.
• shared-secret=elitr
  • Shared secret used to set the secure session between the Cloud VPN gateway and the peer VPN gateway.
• shared-secret-hash=kasd
  • Hash of the shared secret.
• status=consetetur
  • [Output Only] The status of the VPN tunnel, which can be one of the following: - PROVISIONING: Resource is being allocated for the VPN tunnel. - WAITING_FOR_FULL_CONFIG: Waiting to receive all VPN-related configs from the user. Network, TargetVpnGateway, VpnTunnel, ForwardingRule, and Route resources are needed to setup the VPN tunnel. - FIRST_HANDSHAKE: Successful first handshake with the peer VPN. - ESTABLISHED: Secure session is successfully established with the peer VPN. - NETWORK_ERROR: Deprecated, replaced by NO_INCOMING_PACKETS - AUTHORIZATION_ERROR: Auth error (for example, bad shared secret). - NEGOTIATION_FAILURE: Handshake failed. - DEPROVISIONING: Resources are being deallocated for the VPN tunnel. - FAILED: Tunnel creation has failed and the tunnel is not ready to be used. - NO_INCOMING_PACKETS: No incoming packets from peer. - REJECTED: Tunnel configuration was rejected, can be result of being denied access. - ALLOCATING_RESOURCES: Cloud VPN is in the process of allocating all required resources. - STOPPED: Tunnel is stopped due to its Forwarding Rules being deleted for Classic VPN tunnels or the project is in frozen state. - PEER_IDENTITY_MISMATCH: Peer identity does not match peer IP, probably behind NAT. - TS_NARROWING_NOT_ALLOWED: Traffic selector narrowing not allowed for an HA-VPN tunnel.
• target-vpn-gateway=sit
  • URL of the Target VPN gateway with which this VPN tunnel is associated. Provided by the client when the VPN tunnel is created.
• vpn-gateway=dolores
  • URL of the VPN gateway with which this VPN tunnel is associated. Provided by the client when the VPN tunnel is created. This must be used (instead of target_vpn_gateway) if a High Availability VPN gateway resource is created.
• vpn-gateway-interface=69
  • The interface ID of the VPN gateway with which this VPN tunnel is associated. Possible values are: 0, 1.

About Cursors

The cursor position is key to comfortably set complex nested structures. The following rules apply:

• The cursor position is always set relative to the current one, unless the field name starts with the . character. Fields can be nested such as in -r f.s.o .
• The cursor position is set relative to the top-level structure if it starts with ., e.g. -r .s.s
• You can also set nested fields without setting the cursor explicitly. For example, to set a value relative to the current cursor position, you would specify -r struct.sub_struct=bar.
• You can move the cursor one level up by using ... Each additional . moves it up one additional level. E.g. ... would go three levels up.

Optional Output Flags

The method's return value a JSON encoded structure, which will be written to standard output by default.

• -o out
  • out specifies the destination to which to write the server's result to. It will be a JSON-encoded structure. The destination may be - to indicate standard output, or a filepath that is to contain the received bytes. If unset, it defaults to standard output.

Optional Method Properties

You may set the following properties to further configure the call. Please note that -p is followed by one or more key-value-pairs, and is called like this -p k1=v1 k2=v2 even though the listing below repeats the -p for completeness.

• -p request-id=string
  • An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments. The request ID must be a valid UUID with the exception that zero UUID is not supported ( 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000).
