Cloud Router is a distributed and fully managed offering that provides Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) speaker and responder capabilities. Cloud Router works with Cloud Interconnect, Cloud VPN, and Router appliances to create dynamic routes in Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks based on BGP-received and custom learned routes. Since Trusted Cloud has only a single region, it doesn't support global routing. Consequently, Cloud Router has a smaller feature set in Trusted Cloud than in Google Cloud. This page describes the differences between the Trusted Cloud and Google Cloud versions of Cloud Router.
For more detailed information about Cloud Router, see the Cloud Router overview and the rest of the Cloud Router documentation.
Key differences
There are some differences between the Trusted Cloud version of Cloud Router and the Google Cloud version. Some notable differences include the following:
- Subnet range advertisement works as described for regional dynamic mode only.
- Learned routes work as described for regional dynamic mode only.
- Classic VPN with dynamic routes isn't supported on Trusted Cloud.
A more detailed list of differences is provided in the rest of this section. If you are already familiar with Google Cloud, we recommend that you review these differences carefully, particularly before designing an application to run on Trusted Cloud. We also recommend reviewing the general differences between Trusted Cloud and Google Cloud.
