Description

GCP supports Cloud VPN HA configuration: https://cloud.google.com/vpn/docs/concepts/topologies#configurations_that_support_9999_availability.

When using Terraform's google_compute_vpn_gateway, there's no option to create such gateway.

Since IPs are allocated automatically with this option enabled, the resource should have an output of newly allocated IPs.

I've found this (for reference): GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules#1760.

Hey @selslack

As you found in that Magic Modules PR I'm currently working on generating a new google_compute_ha_vpn_gateway resource for the HA VPN Gateway.

This option is preferred because the API that supports the HA VPN Gateway is separate from the one that supports Target VPN Gateway (which is what the current google_compute_vpn_gateway uses)

I'll leave this issue open until we support the HA functionality

Important note: the HA VPN Gateway resource is currently in beta, so this feature will be first made available in https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google-beta

[slevenick]

This is available via the google_compute_ha_vpn_gateway resource introduced in GoogleCloudPlatform/magic-modules#1760

Currently this is only available in the beta provider.

Hello,

as far as I could read there exists no option to create an external vpn gateway with ha mode from the terraform-provider-google-beta (called externalVpnGateways within the beta API). Are there any plans to support this beta feature as well?
