Mirroring deployment lets you expose a zonal set of load balanced appliances so that mirroring deployment can be used by the mirroring endpoint groups.

This page explains how to create and manage mirroring deployment using the Google Cloud CLI.

Before you begin

• You must enable the Network Security API in your project.
• Install the gcloud CLI if you want to run the gcloud command-line examples in this guide.
• You have a mirroring deployment group.
• You have a forwarding rule to direct network traffic to an internal load balancer. For more information, see Set up producer services.

Roles

To get the permissions that you need to create, view, or delete mirroring deployments, ask your administrator to grant you the necessary Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles on your project. For more information about granting roles, see Manage access to projects, folders, and organizations.

To check the progress of the operations listed on this page, make sure that your user role has the following Mirroring Deployment Admin role (roles/networksecurity.mirroringDeploymentAdmin) permissions:

• networksecurity.mirroringDeployments.create
• networksecurity.mirroringDeployments.delete
• networksecurity.mirroringDeployments.get
• networksecurity.mirroringDeployments.list
