Examples:

gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto example-cluster --autoprovisioning-network-tags=tag1,tag2

New nodes in auto-provisioned node pools, including ones created by resize or recreate, will have these tags on the Compute Engine API instance object and can be used in firewall rules. See https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/compute/firewall-rules/create for examples.

--autoprovisioning-resource-manager-tags=[KEY=VALUE,…]

Applies the specified comma-separated resource manager tags that has the GCE_FIREWALL purpose to all nodes in the new Autopilot cluster or all auto-provisioned nodes in the new Standard cluster.

Examples:

gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto example-cluster --autoprovisioning-resource-manager-tags=tagKeys/1234=tagValues/2345
gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto example-cluster --autoprovisioning-resource-manager-tags=my-project/key1=value1
gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto example-cluster --autoprovisioning-resource-manager-tags=12345/key1=value1,23456/key2=value2
gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto example-cluster --autoprovisioning-resource-manager-tags=

All nodes in an Autopilot cluster or all auto-provisioned nodes in a Standard cluster, including nodes that are resized or re-created, will have the specified tags on the corresponding Instance object in the Compute Engine API. You can reference these tags in network firewall policy rules. For instructions, see https://cloud.google.com/firewall/docs/use-tags-for-firewalls.

--boot-disk-kms-key=BOOT_DISK_KMS_KEY

--cluster-ipv4-cidr=CLUSTER_IPV4_CIDR

The IP address range for the pods in this cluster in CIDR notation (e.g. 10.0.0.0/14). Prior to Kubernetes version 1.7.0 this must be a subset of 10.0.0.0/8; however, starting with version 1.7.0 can be any RFC 1918 IP range.

If you omit this option, a range is chosen automatically. The automatically chosen range is randomly selected from 10.0.0.0/8 and will not include IP address ranges allocated to VMs, existing routes, or ranges allocated to other clusters. The automatically chosen range might conflict with reserved IP addresses, dynamic routes, or routes within VPCs that peer with this cluster. You should specify --cluster-ipv4-cidr to prevent conflicts.

This field is not applicable in a Shared VPC setup where the IP address range for the pods must be specified with --cluster-secondary-range-name

--cluster-secondary-range-name=NAME

Set the secondary range to be used as the source for pod IPs. Alias ranges will be allocated from this secondary range. NAME must be the name of an existing secondary range in the cluster subnetwork.

--containerd-config-from-file=PATH_TO_FILE

Path of the YAML file that contains containerd configuration entries like configuring access to private image registries.

For detailed information on the configuration usage, please refer to https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/how-to/customize-containerd-configuration.

Note: Updating the containerd configuration of an existing cluster or node pool requires recreation of the existing nodes, which might cause disruptions in running workloads.

Use a full or relative path to a local file containing the value of containerd_config.

--create-subnetwork=[KEY=VALUE,…]

Create a new subnetwork for the cluster. The name and range of the subnetwork can be customized via optional 'name' and 'range' key-value pairs.

'name' specifies the name of the subnetwork to be created.

'range' specifies the IP range for the new subnetwork. This can either be a netmask size (e.g. '/20') or a CIDR range (e.g. '10.0.0.0/20'). If a netmask size is specified, the IP is automatically taken from the free space in the cluster's network.

Examples:

Create a new subnetwork with a default name and size.

gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto --create-subnetwork ""

Create a new subnetwork named "my-subnet" with netmask of size 21.

gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto --create-subnetwork name=my-subnet,range=/21

Create a new subnetwork with a default name with the primary range of 10.100.0.0/16.

gcloud alpha container clusters create-auto --create-subnetwork range=10.100.0.0/16
