Cloud VPN securely connects your peer network to your Google Cloud (GCP) Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network through a IPsecVPNconnection.

You can connect two instances of Cloud VPN, encrypting traffic traveling between the two networks. This protects your data as it travels over the internet, with encryption handled by one VPN gateway and decryption by the other. The HA VPN gateways from GCP are now discoverable like classic gateways. Using the API, you can query both the HA VPN and classic gateways and visualize them within the user interface (UI).

To set up the Google integration to discover and collect metrics against the Google service.
