gcloud alpha compute network-attachments create

NAME
gcloud alpha compute network-attachments create - create a Google Compute Engine network attachment
SYNOPSIS
gcloud alpha compute network-attachments createNAME--subnets=SUBNETS,[SUBNETS,…][--connection-preference=CONNECTION_PREFERENCE; default="ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC"][--description=DESCRIPTION][--producer-accept-list=[ACCEPT_LIST,…]][--producer-reject-list=[REJECT_LIST,…]][--region=REGION][--subnets-region=SUBNETS_REGION][GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
(ALPHA)gcloud alpha compute network-attachmentscreate is used to create network attachments. A service consumer createsnetwork attachments and makes it available to producers. Service producers thenuse a multi-NIC VM to form a bi-directional, non-NAT'd communication channel.
EXAMPLES
gcloudalphacomputenetwork-attachmentscreateNETWORK_ATTACHMENT_NAME--region=us-central1--subnets=MY_SUBNET--connection-preference=ACCEPT_MANUAL--producer-accept-list=PROJECT1,PROJECT2--producer-reject-list=PROJECT3,PROJECT4

To create a network attachment with a textual description, run:

gcloudalphacomputenetwork-attachmentscreateNETWORK_ATTACHMENT_NAME--region=us-central1--subnets=MY_SUBNET--connection-preference=ACCEPT_MANUAL--producer-accept-list=PROJECT1,PROJECT2--producer-reject-list=PROJECT3,PROJECT4--description='default network attachment'
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
NAME
Name of the network attachment to create.
REQUIRED FLAGS
--subnets=SUBNETS,[SUBNETS,…]
The subnetworks provided by the consumer for the producers
OPTIONAL FLAGS
--connection-preference=CONNECTION_PREFERENCE; default="ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC"
The connection preference of network attachment. The value can be set toACCEPT_AUTOMATIC or ACCEPT_MANUAL. An ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC network attachment is onethat always accepts the connection from producer NIC. An ACCEPT_MANUAL networkattachment is one that requires an explicit addition of the producer project idor project number to the producer accept list.CONNECTION_PREFERENCE must be one of:ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC,ACCEPT_MANUAL.
--description=DESCRIPTION
An optional, textual description for the network attachment.
--producer-accept-list=[ACCEPT_LIST,…]
Projects that are allowed to connect to this network attachment.
--producer-reject-list=[REJECT_LIST,…]
Projects that are not allowed to connect to this network attachment.
--region=REGION
Region of the network attachment to create. If not specified, you might beprompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set thecompute/region property:

gcloudconfigsetcompute/regionREGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

gcloudcomputeregionslist

To unset the property, run:

gcloudconfigunsetcompute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variableCLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

--subnets-region=SUBNETS_REGION
Region of the subnetworks to operate on. Overrides the defaultcompute/region property value for this command invocation.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS
These flags are available to all commands:--access-token-file,--account,--billing-project,--configuration,--flags-file,--flatten,--format,--help,--impersonate-service-account,--log-http,--project,--quiet,--trace-token,--user-output-enabled,--verbosity.

Run$gcloud help for details.
