.SH "DESCRIPTION"

\fB(ALPHA)\fR \fBgcloud alpha compute vpn\-gateways describe\fR is used to
display all data associated with a Compute Engine Highly Available VPN Gateway
in a project.

Highly Available VPN Gateway provides a means to create a VPN solution with a
higher availability SLA compared to Classic Target VPN Gateway. Highly Available
VPN gateways are simply referred to as VPN gateways in the API documentation and
gcloud commands. A VPN Gateway can reference one or more VPN tunnels that
connect it to external VPN gateways or Cloud VPN Gateways.



.SH "EXAMPLES"

To describe a VPN gateway, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud alpha compute vpn\-gateways describe my\-gateway \e
  \-\-region=us\-central1
.RE



.SH "POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fINAME\fR

Name of the VPN Gateway to describe.


.RE
.sp

.SH "FLAGS"

.RS 2m
.TP 2m
\fB\-\-region\fR=\fIREGION\fR

Region of the VPN Gateway to describe. If not specified, you might be prompted
to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the
\f5\fIcompute/region\fR\fR property:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config set compute/region REGION
.RE

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud compute regions list
.RE

To unset the property, run:

.RS 2m
$ gcloud config unset compute/region
.RE

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable
\f5\fICLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION\fR\fR.

This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this
command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project,
you might be trying to access an API with an invitation\-only early access
allowlist. These variants are also available:
