Changing this forces a new resource to be created. * `network` - (Required) The name or self_link of the network to attach this route to. * `priority` - (Required) The priority of this route, used to break ties. - - - * `next_hop_gateway` - (Optional) The URL of the internet gateway to route to if this route is matched. The alias "default-internet-gateway" can also be used. * `next_hop_instance` - (Optional) The name of the VM instance to route to if this route is matched. * `next_hop_instance_zone` - (Required when `next_hop_instance` is specified) The zone of the instance specified in `next_hop_instance`. * `next_hop_ip` - (Optional) The IP address of the next hop if this route is matched. * `next_hop_vpn_tunnel` - (Optional) The name of the VPN to route to if this route is matched. * `project` - (Optional) The project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used. * `tags` - (Optional) The tags that this route applies to. ## Attributes Reference In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are exported: * `next_hop_network` - The name of the next hop network, if available. * `self_link` - The URI of the created resource.
