-
(BETA)gcloud beta compute forwarding-rules describedisplays all data associated with a forwarding rule in a project. - EXAMPLES
- To get details about a global forwarding rule, run:
gcloud beta compute forwarding-rules describe FORWARDING-RULE --globalTo get details about a regional forwarding rule, run:
gcloud beta compute forwarding-rules describe FORWARDING-RULE --region = us-central1To get full details, including any extensions attached to the rule, run:
