Chapter 4.
4.0 Implementing hybrid interconnectivity
4.1 Configuring interconnect. Considerations include:
Partner (e.g., layer 2 vs. layer 3 connectivity), Virtualizing using VLAN attachments, Bulk storage uploads
4.2 Configuring a site-to-site IPsec VPN (e.g., route-based, policy-based, dynamic or static routing).
4.3 Configuring Cloud Router for reliability.
Chapter 5.
5.0 Implementing network security
5.1 Configuring identity and access management (IAM). Tasks include:
Viewing account IAM assignments, Assigning IAM roles to accounts or Google Groups, Defining custom IAM roles, Using pre-defined IAM roles (e.g., network admin, network viewer, network user)
