. Label values may be empty.
labelFingerprint
string ( bytes
format)
A fingerprint for the labels being applied to this InterconnectAttachment, 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 InterconnectAttachment.
A base64-encoded string.
state
enum
[Output Only] The current state of this attachment's functionality. Enum values ACTIVE and UNPROVISIONED are shared by DEDICATED/PRIVATE, PARTNER, and PARTNER_PROVIDER interconnect attachments, while enum values PENDING_PARTNER, PARTNER_REQUEST_RECEIVED, and PENDING_CUSTOMER are used for only PARTNER and PARTNER_PROVIDER interconnect attachments. This state can take one of the following values:
- ACTIVE: The attachment has been turned up and is ready to use.
- UNPROVISIONED: The attachment is not ready to use yet, because turnup is not complete.
- PENDING_PARTNER: A newly-created PARTNER attachment that has not yet been configured on the Partner side.
- PARTNER_REQUEST_RECEIVED: A PARTNER attachment is in the process of provisioning after a PARTNER_PROVIDER attachment was created that references it.
- PENDING_CUSTOMER: A PARTNER or PARTNER_PROVIDER attachment that is waiting for a customer to activate it.
- DEFUNCT: The attachment was deleted externally and is no longer functional. This could be because the associated Interconnect was removed, or because the other side of a Partner attachment was deleted.
partnerAsn
string ( int64
format)
Optional BGP ASN for the router supplied by a Layer 3 Partner if they configured BGP on behalf of the customer. Output only for PARTNER type, input only for PARTNER_PROVIDER, not available for DEDICATED.
encryption
enum
Indicates the user-supplied encryption option of this VLAN attachment (interconnectAttachment). Can only be specified at attachment creation for PARTNER or DEDICATED attachments. Possible values are:
-
NONE- This is the default value, which means that the VLAN attachment carries unencrypted traffic. VMs are able to send traffic to, or receive traffic from, such a VLAN attachment. -
IPSEC- The VLAN attachment carries only encrypted traffic that is encrypted by an IPsec device, such as an HA VPN gateway or third-party IPsec VPN. VMs cannot directly send traffic to, or receive traffic from, such a VLAN attachment. To use HA VPN over Cloud Interconnect , the VLAN attachment must be created with this option.
ipsecInternalAddresses[]
string
A list of URLs of addresses that have been reserved for the VLAN attachment. Used only for the VLAN attachment that has the encryption option as IPSEC. The addresses must be regional internal IP address ranges. When creating an HA VPN gateway over the VLAN attachment, if the attachment is configured to use a regional internal IP address, then the VPN gateway's IP address is allocated from the IP address range specified here. For example, if the HA VPN gateway's interface 0 is paired to this VLAN attachment, then a regional internal IP address for the VPN gateway interface 0 will be allocated from the IP address specified for this VLAN attachment. If this field is not specified when creating the VLAN attachment, then later on when creating an HA VPN gateway on this VLAN attachment, the HA VPN gateway's IP address is allocated from the regional external IP address pool.
dataplaneVersion
integer
[Output Only] Dataplane version for this InterconnectAttachment. This field is only present for Dataplane version 2 and higher. Absence of this field in the API output indicates that the Dataplane is version 1.
satisfiesPzs
boolean
[Output Only] Reserved for future use.
stackType
enum
The stack type for this interconnect attachment to identify whether the IPv6 feature is enabled or not. If not specified, IPV4_ONLY
will be used.
This field can be both set at interconnect attachments creation and update interconnect attachment operations.
cloudRouterIpv6Address
string
[Output Only] IPv6 address + prefix length to be configured on Cloud Router Interface for this interconnect attachment.
customerRouterIpv6Address
string
[Output Only] IPv6 address + prefix length to be configured on the customer router subinterface for this interconnect attachment.
candidateIpv6Subnets[]
string
This field is not available.
cloudRouterIpv6InterfaceId
string
This field is not available.
customerRouterIpv6InterfaceId
string
This field is not available.
subnetLength
integer
Input only. Length of the IPv4 subnet mask. Allowed values:
- 29 (default)
- 30
The default value is 29, except for Cross-Cloud Interconnect connections that use an InterconnectRemoteLocation with a constraints.subnetLengthRange.min equal to 30. For example, connections that use an Azure remote location fall into this category. In these cases, the default value is 30, and requesting 29 returns an error.
Where both 29 and 30 are allowed, 29 is preferred, because it gives Google Cloud Support more debugging visibility.
remoteService
string
[Output Only] If the attachment is on a Cross-Cloud Interconnect connection, this field contains the interconnect's remote location service provider. Example values: "Amazon Web Services" "Microsoft Azure".
The field is set only for attachments on Cross-Cloud Interconnect connections. Its value is copied from the InterconnectRemoteLocation remoteService field.
configurationConstraints
object
[Output Only] Constraints for this attachment, if any. The attachment does not work if these constraints are not met.
configurationConstraints.bgpMd5
enum
[Output Only] Whether the attachment's BGP session requires/allows/disallows BGP MD5 authentication. This can take one of the following values: MD5_OPTIONAL, MD5_REQUIRED, MD5_UNSUPPORTED.
For example, a Cross-Cloud Interconnect connection to a remote cloud provider that requires BGP MD5 authentication has the interconnectRemoteLocation attachmentConfigurationConstraints.bgp_md5 field set to MD5_REQUIRED, and that property is propagated to the attachment. Similarly, if BGP MD5 is MD5_UNSUPPORTED, an error is returned if MD5 is requested.
configurationConstraints.bgpPeerAsnRanges[]
object
[Output Only] interconnectAttachments.list of ASN ranges that the remote location is known to support. Formatted as an array of inclusive ranges {min: min-value, max: max-value}. For example, [{min: 123, max: 123}, {min: 64512, max: 65534}] allows the peer ASN to be 123 or anything in the range 64512-65534.
This field is only advisory. Although the API accepts other ranges, these are the ranges that we recommend.
configurationConstraints.bgpPeerAsnRanges[].min
integer ( uint32
format)
configurationConstraints.bgpPeerAsnRanges[].max
integer ( uint32
format)
candidateCloudRouterIpAddress
