    B.

    Create an Auto mode VPC network.

    C.

    Create a Custom mode VPC network and manually define the subnets and IP ranges.

    D.

    Create a Shared VPC and let Google automatically assign the IP ranges.

    Full Answer

    C.Create a Custom mode VPC network and manually define the subnets and IP ranges.✓ Correct
    Create a Custom mode VPC network and manually define the subnets and IP ranges.
    When connecting GCP to an on-premises network (via VPN or Interconnect), you must ensure there are no overlapping IP ranges. Auto mode VPCs automatically create a subnet in every GCP region with predefined IP ranges. Custom mode VPCs start with no subnets, giving you complete control to define specific IP ranges that fit into your enterprise IP address management (IPAM) plan.

    Common mistakes

    Using the default network for production, leading to routing conflicts when connecting to on-premises.
