A forwarding rule and its corresponding IP address represent the frontend
configuration of a Google Cloud load balancer. Forwarding rules are also
used for protocol forwarding, Private Service Connect and other network
services to provide forwarding information in the control plane. Applicable
only to destination endpoint. Format:
projects/{project}/global/forwardingRules/{id} or
projects/{project}/regions/{region}/forwardingRules/{id}
DNS endpoint of Google Kubernetes Engine cluster control
plane.
Requires gke_master_cluster to be set, can't be used simultaneoulsly with
ip_address or network. Applicable only to destination endpoint.
Project ID where the endpoint is located.
The project ID can be derived from the URI if you provide a endpoint or
network URI.
The following are two cases where you may need to provide the project ID:
Only the IP address is specified, and the IP address is within a Google
Cloud project.
When you are using Shared VPC and the IP address that you provide is
from the service project. In this case, the network that the IP address
resides in is defined in the host project.
