Request to Enable Cloud SQL Access (Project A → Project B VM) via VPN

Hi Team,

I need to establish private connectivity from a VM in Project B to a Cloud SQL instance (Private IP) hosted in Project A, using an existing VPN tunnel between the two projects.

Here’s what I’ve already done:

  • The VPN tunnel between Project A and Project B is active and BGP sessions are established.

  •  The Cloud SQL instance in Project A is using Private IP and is attached to the correct VPC.

  • Firewall rules are configured to allow traffic (TCP:5432/3306) from Project B’s subnet to the Cloud SQL private IP.

  •  The Cloud Router in Project A is advertising the Cloud SQL subnet to Project B via BGP.

  •  A valid route exists in Project B for the Cloud SQL subnet through the VPN.

Additional Info:

I ran a Connectivity Test, and the results were:

  • Overall configuration analysis result:  Reachable

  • Last live data plane analysis result:  Not eligible

📎 Screenshot attached.

Questions:

  • Is the "Not eligible" result expected due to the Cloud SQL instance being in a Google-managed service network?

  • Since the tool says Reachable, can I assume the VM in Project B will be able to connect to the Cloud SQL instance?

  • Is there anything else I should validate or configure to ensure end-to-end connectivity?

Thanks,
Thamizhmani G
