In static route configuration, specifying an outgoing interface and a next hop IP address are two distinct methods used to define how traffic should be forwarded to reach a specific destination network. Understanding the difference between these two approaches is crucial for network administrators to effectively manage routing in a network environment. When configuring a

Static routes can be used in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to establish connectivity between two Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) located in different regions. This scenario is particularly useful when there is a need to establish a direct and controlled communication path between VPCs without relying on dynamic routing protocols. To understand this scenario, let's consider
