Virtual Cross Connects

Update the Virtual Cross Connect

Update the Virtual Cross Connect.<br /><br />Cloud IPs can only be patched during the created state, as GCE will only inform you of your generated IP once the pending connection requested has been accepted. Once the Virtual Cross Connect has moved to provisioning, the IPs can no longer be patched.<br /><br />Once the Virtual Cross Connect has moved to provisioned and you are ready to enable routing, you can toggle the routing announcements to true.
