Google Cloud Professional Cloud Network Engineer — Question 50

You need to configure a static route to an on-premises resource behind a Cloud VPN gateway that is configured for policy-based routing using the gcloud command.
Which next hop should you choose?

Answer options

• A. The default internet gateway
• B. The IP address of the Cloud VPN gateway
• C. The name and region of the Cloud VPN tunnel
• D. The IP address of the instance on the remote side of the VPN tunnel

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as specifying the name and region of the Cloud VPN tunnel is necessary for the static route to direct traffic properly. Options A and B are incorrect because they do not point to the specific tunnel required for policy-based routing, while D points to an instance's IP address, which is not the correct configuration for routing through the VPN tunnel.
