Documentation

gcp-cloud-nat

A Cloud NAT gateway for one region: a google_compute_router plus a google_compute_router_nat so private instances (no external IPs) get outbound internet access. Sensible, secure defaults: auto-allocated NAT IPs, NAT all subnet ranges, and logging on. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), Google provider >= 7.0, < 8.0.

What you get:

  • A Cloud Router (optionally BGP-enabled) in the chosen region
  • A Cloud NAT gateway: AUTO_ONLY IP allocation, ALL_SUBNETWORKS_ALL_IP_RANGES by default, tunable idle timeouts and per-VM port minimums
  • Cloud NAT logging (ERRORS_ONLY by default)

Requirements

RequirementVersion
Terraform / OpenTofu>= 1.6
hashicorp/google>= 7.0, < 8.0

Verification

Static-validated (fmt, validate, tflint). Live apply/destroy testing pending cloud sandbox availability — see catalog status.
