- DESCRIPTION

(BETA)
gcloud beta compute routes create
is used to create routes. A route is a rule that specifies how certain packets should be handled by the virtual network. Routes are associated with virtual machine instances by tag, and the set of routes for a particular VM is called its routing table. For each packet leaving a virtual machine, the system searches that machine's routing table for a single best matching route.Routes match packets by destination IP address, preferring smaller or more specific ranges over larger ones (see
). If there is a tie, the system selects the route with the smallest priority value. If there is still a tie, it uses the layer 3 and 4 packet headers to select just one of the remaining matching routes. The packet is then forwarded as specified by--destination-range
,--next-hop-address
,--next-hop-instance
,--next-hop-vpn-tunnel
, or--next-hop-gateway
of the winning route. Packets that do not match any route in the sending virtual machine routing table will be dropped.--next-hop-ilb
Exactly one of
,--next-hop-address
,--next-hop-gateway
,--next-hop-vpn-tunnel
, or--next-hop-instance
must be provided with this command.--next-hop-ilb
- EXAMPLES
-
To create a route with the name 'route-name' with destination range '0.0.0.0/0'
and with next hop gateway 'default-internet-gateway', run:
gcloud beta compute routes create route-name --destination-range=0.0.0.0/0 --next-hop-gateway=default-internet-gateway
- POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
NAME
- Name of the route to create.
- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
--destination-range
=DESTINATION_RANGE
- The destination range of outgoing packets that the route will apply to. To match all traffic, use ``0.0.0.0/0´´.
-
Exactly one of these must be specified:
--next-hop-address
=NEXT_HOP_ADDRESS
-
Specifies the IP address of an instance that should handle matching packets. The
instance must have IP forwarding enabled (i.e., include
when creating the instance using--can-ip-forward
gcloud compute instances create
) --next-hop-gateway
=NEXT_HOP_GATEWAY
-
Specifies the gateway that should handle matching packets. Currently, the only
acceptable value is
default-internet-gateway
which is a gateway operated by Google Compute Engine. --next-hop-ilb
=NEXT_HOP_ILB
-
Specifies the name or IP address of a forwarding rule for an internal TCP/UDP
load balancer. The forwarding rule's
--load-balancing-scheme
must beINTERNAL
. You can use any--destination-range
that doesn't exactly match the destination of a subnet route and isn't more specific (has a longer subnet mask) than the destination of a subnet route. For more information, see https://cloud.google.com/load-balancing/docs/internal/ilb-next-hop-overview#destination_range. --next-hop-instance
=NEXT_HOP_INSTANCE
-
Specifies the name of an instance that should handle traffic matching this
route. When this flag is specified, the zone of the instance must be specified
using
.--next-hop-instance-zone
--next-hop-vpn-tunnel
=NEXT_HOP_VPN_TUNNEL
- The target VPN tunnel that will receive forwarded traffic.
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
--description
=DESCRIPTION
- An optional, textual description for the route.
--network
=NETWORK
; default="default"- Specifies the network to which the route will be applied.
--next-hop-ilb-region
=NEXT_HOP_ILB_REGION
-
The region of the next hop forwarding rule. 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
property:compute/region
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
--next-hop-instance-zone
=NEXT_HOP_INSTANCE_ZONE
-
The zone of the next hop instance. If not specified, you might be prompted to
select a zone (interactive mode only).
gcloud
attempts to identify the appropriate zone by searching for resources in your currently active project. If the zone cannot be determined,gcloud
prompts you for a selection with all available Google Cloud Platform zones.To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, the user can set the
property:compute/zone
gcloud config set compute/zone ZONE
A list of zones can be fetched by running:
gcloud compute zones list
To unset the property, run:
gcloud config unset compute/zone
Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE
--next-hop-vpn-tunnel-region
=NEXT_HOP_VPN_TUNNEL_REGION
-
The region of the next hop vpn tunnel. 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
property:compute/region
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
--priority
=PRIORITY
; default=1000- Specifies the priority of this route relative to other routes with the same specificity. The lower the value, the higher the priority.
- Identifies the set of instances that this route will apply to. If no tags are provided, the route will apply to all instances in the network.
- GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
