Question

You have provisioned a Cloud Interconnect connection with a VLAN attachment. You configured Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) between your on-premises router and your Cloud Router. After deploying and testing the connection, you discover that the BGP session is not established between your on-premises router and the Cloud Router. Which two actions should you take to resolve this issue? (Choose two.)

Options

  • AFrom the Google Cloud console, run gcloud compute routers get-status
  • BVerify that you have configured the on-premises router's subinterface with a subnet mask of /31.
  • CVerify that you have configured the on-premises router's eBGP multihop with a minimum hop
  • DVerify that you have configured the on-premises router's BGP security parameters to use MD5
  • EFrom the Google Cloud console, run gcloud compute interconnects get-diagnostics

Explanation

Verifying ARP with Cloud Router Status The gcloud compute routers get-status command checks the status of the Cloud Router, including its ARP entries. This helps confirm whether the Cloud Router has learned the ARP for the on-premises router, which is essential for establishing the BGP session. Subnet Mask Configuration When configuring the on-premises router's subinterface, a /31 subnet mask is required for point- to-point connectivity between your on-premises router and the Cloud Router. Incorrect subnet mask configurations are a common reason for BGP session failures.
