# Target VPN Gateway

A Target VPN Gateway in Google Cloud is a regional resource that represents the VPN endpoint on the Google Cloud side of a Classic VPN connection. It is used to establish secure IPsec tunnels between your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network and an external network, such as an on-premises data center.
