Correct answer: Provision a Cloud VPN tunnel between the on-premises network and the GCP VPC..
Why this is the answer
A Cloud VPN tunnel provides secure, private-IP connectivity between your on-premises network and your Google Cloud VPC. This allows on-prem workloads to communicate directly with cloud workloads using internal IP addresses, which is essential for bursting workloads that require seamless integration and low latency. Configuring the VPC as a Shared VPC host is for sharing a VPC network across multiple projects within GCP, not for connecting to an on-premises network. VPC Network Peering connects two VPC networks within GCP, not an on-premises network to GCP. Deploying bastion hosts and proxying traffic over public IPs would not provide direct private-IP communication and would introduce additional latency and security considerations.
