Answer: The IP address of the Cloud VPN gateway
When configuring a static route for an on-premises resource behind a Cloud VPN gateway using policy-based routing, the next hop must direct traffic to the VPN gateway. Policy-based VPNs in Google Cloud rely on static routes where the next hop is the Cloud VPN gateway's IP address. The gateway handles traffic based on predefined policies (source/destination IPs) and routes it through the appropriate VPN tunnel. Options A (default internet gateway) is unrelated to VPN traffic, C (VPN tunnel name/region) is used for route-based VPNs (not policy-based), and D (remote instance IP) refers to the destination, not the next hop.
