+
+## Overview
+
+This guide explains how to create an F5 NGINXaaS for Google Cloud (NGINXaaS) deployment using the [`F5Networks/f5ads` Terraform provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/F5Networks/f5ads/latest/docs). This guide only covers creating a deployment.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+{{< include "/nginxaas/google/terraform-prerequisites.md" >}}
+
+## Configure the provider
+
+Add the `f5ads` provider to your Terraform configuration and pin it to the exact alpha version:
+
+```hcl
+terraform {
+  required_providers {
+    f5ads = {
+      source  = "F5Networks/f5ads"
+      version = "0.1.0-alpha.1"
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+provider "f5ads" {
+  geo = "us"
+}
+```
+
+The provider needs your F5 ADS client credentials to authenticate. You can supply them in the provider block, or with environment variables:
+
+```hcl
+provider "f5ads" {
+  geo           = "us"
+  client_id     = "your-client-id"
+  client_secret = "your-client-secret"
+}
+```
+
+```shell
+export F5ADS_GEO="us"
+export F5ADS_CLIENT_ID="your-client-id"
+export F5ADS_CLIENT_SECRET="your-client-secret"
+```
+
+## Create GCP network resources
+
+Include the following snippet if you need to create a VPC, subnet, and [network attachment](https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/about-network-attachments) for your deployment. Add the [`hashicorp/google` provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/google/latest/docs) to authenticate to your GCP project.
+
+```hcl
+provider "google" {
+  region = "us-east1"
+}
+
+resource "google_compute_network" "vpc" {
+  name                    = "my-vpc"
+  auto_create_subnetworks = false
+}
+
+resource "google_compute_subnetwork" "subnet" {
+  name          = "my-subnet"
+  ip_cidr_range = "10.0.0.0/24"
+  region        = "us-east1"
+  network       = google_compute_network.vpc.id
+}
+
+resource "google_compute_network_attachment" "attachment" {
+  name                  = "my-network-attachment"
+  region                = "us-east1"
+  connection_preference = "ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC"
+  subnetworks           = [google_compute_subnetwork.subnet.id]
+}
+```
+
+{{< call-out class="caution" >}}
+The `f5ads` provider currently only supports network attachments with `connection_preference` set to `ACCEPT_AUTOMATIC`, which accepts connections from all projects. Support for `ACCEPT_MANUAL` is planned for an upcoming release. See [Google's documentation on creating a network attachment](https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/create-manage-network-attachments#create-network-attachments) for details.

+
+## Create a deployment
+
+{{< call-out class="important" >}}
+Create or reuse an existing configuration in the [F5 ADS Console]({{< ref "/nginxaas/google/deploy/nginx-configuration/nginx-configuration-console.md" >}}) first, then supply its [Configuration ID and Configuration Version ID]({{< ref "/nginxaas/google/deploy/nginx-configuration/nginx-configuration-console.md#get-nginx-configuration-version-information" >}}) below.
+{{< /call-out >}}
+
+Choose a frontend type for your deployment. Refer to [Service frontend]({{< ref "/nginxaas/google/overview.md#service-frontend" >}}) for more information on these two frontend types.
+
+To use a managed public endpoint:
+
+```hcl
+resource "f5ads_deployment" "example" {
+  name                    = "my-deployment"
+  capacity                = 20
+  waf_enabled             = true
+  nginx_config_id         = "cfg_example123"
+  nginx_config_version_id = "cv_example456"
+
+  google_cloud_properties = {
+    region             = "us-east1"
+    network_attachment = google_compute_network_attachment.attachment.id
+
+    frontend = {
+      managed_public_endpoint = {
+        acl = [
+          {
+            source_prefixes = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
+            port_range      = "80"
+            protocol        = "tcp"
+          },
+          {
+            source_prefixes = ["0.0.0.0/0"]
+            port_range      = "443"
+            protocol        = "tcp"
+          },
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+To use a private endpoint instead, replace the `managed_public_endpoint` block with a `private_endpoint` block:
+
+```hcl
+    frontend = {
+      private_endpoint = {
+        service_attachment_accept_list = [
+          "my-gcp-project",
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+```
+
+Create the deployment:
+
+```shell
+terraform init
+terraform plan
+terraform apply
+```
