List locations

When you order a Dedicated Interconnect connection, you must specify a colocation facility where your network meets Google's network. In most cases, select a facility that's geographically close to your on-premises network.

To view a list of these facilities in the documentation, see All colocation facilities.

To use the Google Cloud console or Google Cloud CLI to view a list of facilities, see the following steps.

Console

You can view a list of the colocation facilities when you order a Dedicated Interconnect connection. You can filter the locations by city or facility name.
