Ensure IPSec Gateway

Ensures that the IPSecGateway with the provided ID is created or modified. The full IPSecGateway needs to be provided to ensure (either update or create) the IPSecGateway. Non present data will only be filled with defaults or left empty, but not take previous values into consideration.

To ensure that the IPSecGateway with the provided ID is created or modified, perform PUT request.

Note:

• If IPSecGateway for a given gatewayId does not exist, a new one is created instead.

• VPN Gateways do not support connecting to LANs directly managed by Managed Kubernetes. However, you can attach additional LANs to node pools and connect these LANs to a VPN Gateway.

Endpoint

Use a region-specific endpoint to ensure IPSecGateway is created or modified: https://vpn.{region}.ionos.com/ipsecgateways/{gatewayId}.

Request

Note: The following request contains a sample gatewayId. Replace them with the gatewayId value whose information you want to update.
