How to create Virtual Machine VM in GCP and add SSH key to access | Google cloud plateform
In the Google Cloud Console, go to the VM instances page.
Go to VM instances
Select your project and click Continue.
Click Create instance.
Specify a Name for your VM. See Resource naming convention.
Optional: Change the Zone for this VM. Compute Engine randomizes the list of zones within each region to encourage use across multiple zones.
Select a Machine configuration for your VM.
In the Boot disk section, click Change to configure your boot disk. Unless you explicitly choose a different boot disk, if the name of the new VM matches the name of an existing persistent disk, then the existing persistent disk automatically attaches to the new VM as the boot disk.
In the Public images tab, choose the following:
Operating system
OS version
Boot disk type
Boot disk size
Click Save to confirm your boot disk options.
Select Allow HTTP traffic or Allow HTTPS traffic to permit HTTP or HTTPS traffic to the VM. When you select one of these, Compute Engine adds a network tag to your VM, which associates the firewall rule with the VM. Then, Compute Engine creates the corresponding ingress firewall rule that allows all incoming traffic on tcp:80 (HTTP) or tcp:443 (HTTPS).
Optional: If you chose an OS image that supports Shielded VM features, you can modify the Shielded VM settings. To modify shielded VM settings, click the Security tab in the Management, security, disks, networking, sole tenancy section and do the following, as required:
To enable Secure Boot, select Turn on Secure Boot. Secure Boot is disabled by default.
To disable vTPM, clear Turn on vTPM. vTPM is enabled by default. Disabling vTPM also disables integrity monitoring because integrity monitoring relies on data gathered by Measured Boot.
To disable integrity monitoring, clear the Turn on Integrity Monitoring checkbox. Integrity monitoring is enabled by default.
Click Create to create and start the VM.
