Using the GCP Network Overview dashboard you can get an overview of your GCP VPCs and key network services linked to it.
The
GCP Network Overview dashboard helps you answer several key questions.
- What is the network service count for a specific project?
- How many VPC Networks are configured in your environment?
- What are the VPN gateways for a specific VPC Network?
- How many VPN Tunnels and Subnets are connected to a specific VPC Network?
How to Use the Dashboard?
In the
GCP Network Overview dashboard, the data is displayed at the GCP World level by default. You can filter them by project. You can view the number of VPCs, Subnets, VPN Gateways, and VPN tunnels. You can also choose a specific VPC and drill down into the network resources linked to the selected VPC.
