    • AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_ANY
    • AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_1
    • AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_2
    For improved reliability, customers should configure a pair of attachments, one per availability domain. The selected availability domain will be provided to the Partner via the pairing key, so that the provisioned circuit will lie in the specified domain. If not specified, the value will default to AVAILABILITY_DOMAIN_ANY.

    candidateSubnets[]

    string

    Input only. Up to 16 candidate prefixes that can be used to restrict the allocation of cloudRouterIpAddress and customerRouterIpAddress for this attachment. All prefixes must be within link-local address space (169.254.0.0/16) and must be /29 or shorter (/28, /27, etc). Trusted Cloud will attempt to select an unused /29 from the supplied candidate prefix(es). The request will fail if all possible /29s are in use on Trusted Cloud edge. If not supplied, Trusted Cloud will randomly select an unused /29 from all of link-local space.

    request to retrieve an InterconnectAttachment.

    A base64-encoded string.

    state

    enum (State)

    [Output Only] The current state of this attachment's functionality. Enum values ACTIVE and UNPROVISIONED are shared by DEDICATED/PRIVATE, PARTNER, and PARTNER_PROVIDER interconnect attachments, while enum values PENDING_PARTNER, PARTNER_REQUEST_RECEIVED, and PENDING_CUSTOMER are used for only PARTNER and PARTNER_PROVIDER interconnect attachments. This state can take one of the following values:

    • ACTIVE: The attachment has been turned up and is ready to use.
    • UNPROVISIONED: The attachment is not ready to use yet, because turnup is not complete.
    • PENDING_PARTNER: A newly-created PARTNER attachment that has not yet been configured on the Partner side.
    • PARTNER_REQUEST_RECEIVED: A PARTNER attachment is in the process of provisioning after a PARTNER_PROVIDER attachment was created that references it.
    • PENDING_CUSTOMER: A PARTNER or PARTNER_PROVIDER attachment that is waiting for a customer to activate it.
    • DEFUNCT: The attachment was deleted externally and is no longer functional. This could be because the associated Interconnect was removed, or because the other side of a Partner attachment was deleted.

    partnerAsn

    string (int64 format)

    Optional BGP ASN for the router supplied by a Layer 3 Partner if they configured BGP on behalf of the customer. Output only for PARTNER type, input only for PARTNER_PROVIDER, not available for DEDICATED.

    encryption

    enum (Encryption)

    Indicates the user-supplied encryption option of this VLAN attachment (interconnectAttachment). Can only be specified at attachment creation for PARTNER or DEDICATED attachments. Possible values are:

    • NONE

      • This is the default value, which means that the VLAN attachment carries unencrypted traffic. VMs are able to send traffic to, or receive traffic from, such a VLAN attachment.

      IPSEC

      • The VLAN attachment carries only encrypted traffic that is encrypted by an IPsec device, such as an HA VPN gateway or third-party IPsec VPN. VMs cannot directly send traffic to, or receive traffic from, such a VLAN attachment. To use HA VPN over Cloud Interconnect, the VLAN attachment must be created with this option.
    ipsecInternalAddresses[]

    string

    A list of URLs of addresses that have been reserved for the VLAN attachment. Used only for the VLAN attachment that has the encryption option as IPSEC. The addresses must be regional internal IP address ranges. When creating an HA VPN gateway over the VLAN attachment, if the attachment is configured to use a regional internal IP address, then the VPN gateway's IP address is allocated from the IP address range specified here. For example, if the HA VPN gateway's interface 0 is paired to this VLAN attachment, then a regional internal IP address for the VPN gateway interface 0 will be allocated from the IP address specified for this VLAN attachment. If this field is not specified when creating the VLAN attachment, then later on when creating an HA VPN gateway on this VLAN attachment, the HA VPN gateway's IP address is allocated from the regional external IP address pool.

    dataplaneVersion

    integer

    [Output Only] Dataplane version for this InterconnectAttachment. This field is only present for Dataplane version 2 and higher. Absence of this field in the API output indicates that the Dataplane is version 1.

    satisfiesPzs

    boolean

    [Output Only] Reserved for future use.

    stackType

    enum (StackType)

    The stack type for this interconnect attachment to identify whether the IPv6 feature is enabled or not. If not specified,

    IPV4_ONLY

    will be used.

    This field can be both set at interconnect attachments creation and update interconnect attachment operations.

    cloudRouterIpv6Address

    string

    [Output Only] IPv6 address + prefix length to be configured on Cloud Router Interface for this interconnect attachment.

    customerRouterIpv6Address

    string

    [Output Only] IPv6 address + prefix length to be configured on the customer router subinterface for this interconnect attachment.

    candidateIpv6Subnets[]

    string

    This field is not available.

    cloudRouterIpv6InterfaceId

    string

    This field is not available.

    customerRouterIpv6InterfaceId

    string

    This field is not available.

    subnetLength

    integer

    Input only. Length of the IPv4 subnet mask. Allowed values:

    • 29 (default)
    • 30

    The default value is 29, except for Cross-Cloud Interconnect connections that use an InterconnectRemoteLocation with a constraints.subnetLengthRange.min equal to 30. For example, connections that use an Azure remote location fall into this category. In these cases, the default value is 30, and requesting 29 returns an error.

    Where both 29 and 30 are allowed, 29 is preferred, because it gives Trusted Cloud Support more debugging visibility.

    remoteService

    string

    [Output Only] If the attachment is on a Cross-Cloud Interconnect connection, this field contains the interconnect's remote location service provider. Example values: "Amazon Web Services" "Microsoft Azure".

    The field is set only for attachments on Cross-Cloud Interconnect connections. Its value is copied from the InterconnectRemoteLocation remoteService field.

    configurationConstraints

    object (ConfigurationConstraints)

    [Output Only] Constraints for this attachment, if any. The attachment does not work if these constraints are not met.

    attachmentGroup

    string

    [Output Only] URL of the AttachmentGroup that includes this Attachment.

    l2Forwarding

    object (L2Forwarding)

    L2 Interconnect Attachment related config. This field is required if the type is L2_DEDICATED.

    The configuration specifies how VLAN tags (like dot1q, qinq, or dot1ad) within L2 packets are mapped to the destination appliances IP addresses. The packet is then encapsulated with the appliance IP address and sent to the edge appliance.

    params

    object (InterconnectAttachmentParams)

    Input only. [Input Only] Additional params passed with the request, but not persisted as part of resource payload.

    PrivateInfo

    Information for an interconnect attachment when this belongs to an interconnect of type DEDICATED.
