An organization plans to establish a Dedicated Interconnect connection between its on-premises network and a Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network. Which TWO configuration steps are required to set up this hybrid connectivity solution? (Select two.)
- Provision physical cross-connects between the on-premises router and Google edge router at a supported colocation facility.Answer
- Configure a Cloud Router and create VLAN attachments (interconnect attachments) in the target GCP VPC network.Answer
- CEstablish Classic VPN IPsec tunnels over the public internet to carry the underlying Interconnect traffic.
- DConfigure VPC Network Peering directly between the on-premises router and the Google Cloud VPC network.
- EDeploy VPC Service Controls perimeters to configure the underlying BGP dynamic routing protocol.
Answer
The two required steps are provisioning physical cross-connects at a supported colocation facility and configuring a Cloud Router with VLAN attachments in the GCP VPC network.
Establishing a Dedicated Interconnect requires physical cross-connects between the on-premises router and Google edge routers at a colocation facility. Additionally, logically connecting the VPC requires establishing VLAN attachments and configuring a Cloud Router to manage BGP sessions for dynamic route exchanges.
