- DESCRIPTION
-
(BETA)gcloud beta compute routers add-interfaceis used to add an interface to a Compute Engine router. - POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
-
-
NAME - Name of the router to update.
-
- REQUIRED FLAGS
-
-
--interface-name=INTERFACE_NAME - The name of the interface being added.
- Exactly one of these must be specified:
- Interconnect Attachment
- The interconnect attachment of the interface being added.
- Region of the interconnectAttachment to operate on. If not specified it will be
set to the region of the router. Overrides the default
compute/regionproperty value for this command invocation. - Subnetwork
-
--subnetwork=SUBNETWORK - The subnetwork of the interface being added.
-
--subnetwork-region=SUBNETWORK_REGION - Region of the subnetwork to operate on. If not specified it will be set to the
region of the router. Overrides the default
compute/regionproperty value for this command invocation. - VPN Tunnel
-
--vpn-tunnel=VPN_TUNNEL - The tunnel of the interface being added.
-
--vpn-tunnel-region=VPN_TUNNEL_REGION - Region of the vpn tunnel to operate on. If not specified it will be set to the
region of the router. Overrides the default
compute/regionproperty value for this command invocation.
-
- OPTIONAL FLAGS
-
-
--ip-address=IP_ADDRESS - The link local (IPv4) or ULA (IPv6) address of the router for this interface.
-
--ip-version=IP_VERSION - IP version of the interface. Possible values are IPV4 and IPV6. Defaults to
IPV4.
IP_VERSIONmust be one of:-
IPV4 - Interface with IPv4-based BGP.
-
IPV6 - Interface with IPv6-based BGP.
-
-
--mask-length=MASK_LENGTH - The subnet mask for the IP range of the interface. The interface IP address and BGP peer IP address must be selected from the subnet defined by this range.
-
--redundant-interface=REDUNDANT_INTERFACE - The interface that is redundant to the current interface.
-
--region=REGION - Region of the router to update. 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/regiongcloud config set compute/region REGIONA list of regions can be fetched by running:
gcloud compute regions listTo unset the property, run:
gcloud config unset compute/regionAlternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
.CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION
-
- GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
- These flags are available to all commands:
