      "ipAddress": string

Fields
description

string

An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
id

string (fixed64 format)

[Output Only] The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
creationTimestamp

string

[Output Only] Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
name

string

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.
redundancyType

enum

Indicates the user-supplied redundancy type of this external VPN gateway.
interfaces[]

object

globalOperations.list of interfaces for this external VPN gateway.
interfaces[].id

integer (uint32 format)

The numeric ID of this interface. The allowed input values for this id for different redundancy types of external VPN gateway: SINGLE_IP_INTERNALLY_REDUNDANT - 0 TWO_IPS_REDUNDANCY - 0, 1 FOUR_IPS_REDUNDANCY - 0, 1, 2, 3
interfaces[].ipAddress

string

IP address of the interface in the external VPN gateway. Only IPv4 is supported. This IP address can be either from your on-premise gateway or another Cloud provider's VPN gateway, it cannot be an IP address from Google Compute Engine.
labels

map (key: string, value: string)

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.

An object containing a list of "key": value pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }.
labelFingerprint

string (bytes format)

A fingerprint for the labels being applied to this ExternalVpnGateway, 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 an ExternalVpnGateway.

A base64-encoded string.
kind

string

[Output Only] Type of the resource. Always compute#externalVpnGateway for externalVpnGateways.
