Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
auth_kind
string / required
    Choices:
  • application
  • machineaccount
  • serviceaccount
The type of credential used.
description
-
An optional description of this resource.
ike_version
-
Default:
"2"
IKE protocol version to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with peer VPN gateway.
Acceptable IKE versions are 1 or 2. Default version is 2.
local_traffic_selector
-
Local traffic selector to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with peer VPN gateway. The value should be a CIDR formatted string, for example `192.168.0.0/16`. The ranges should be disjoint.
Only IPv4 is supported.
name
- / required
Name of the resource. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
peer_ip
- / required
IP address of the peer VPN gateway. Only IPv4 is supported.
project
string
The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
region
- / required
The region where the tunnel is located.
remote_traffic_selector
-
Remote traffic selector to use when establishing the VPN tunnel with peer VPN gateway. The value should be a CIDR formatted string, for example `192.168.0.0/16`. The ranges should be disjoint.
Only IPv4 is supported.
router
-
URL of router resource to be used for dynamic routing.
This field represents a link to a Router resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key 'selfLink' and value of your resource's selfLink Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_compute_router task and then set this router field to "{{ name-of-resource }}"
scopes
list
Array of scopes to be used.
service_account_contents
string
A string representing the contents of a Service Account JSON file.
This should not be passed in as a dictionary, but a string that has the exact contents of a service account json file (valid JSON)
service_account_email
string
An optional service account email address if machineaccount is selected and the user does not wish to use the default email.
service_account_file
path
The path of a Service Account JSON file if serviceaccount is selected as type.
shared_secret
- / required
Shared secret used to set the secure session between the Cloud VPN gateway and the peer VPN gateway.
state
-
    Choices:
  • present ←
  • absent
Whether the given object should exist in GCP
target_vpn_gateway
- / required
URL of the Target VPN gateway with which this VPN tunnel is associated.
This field represents a link to a TargetVpnGateway resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key 'selfLink' and value of your resource's selfLink Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_compute_target_vpn_gateway task and then set this target_vpn_gateway field to "{{ name-of-resource }}"
