Hi Team,

We have a virtual gateway that is failing to establish the second BGP session for connectivity between our GCP environment and microsoft. We followed this guide here: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/multicloud-solutions/tree/main/gcp-azure-vpn and everything looks like it is configured fine.

The resource that is failing to establish a BGP session is: "lgw-c-nh-aue-2" The other local gateway is up and fine.

Any insight into this would be amazingly helpful.

Thanks,

Peter.
