  network      = google_compute_network.default.self_link
  peer_network = google_compute_network.other.self_link
}

resource "google_compute_network_peering" "peering2" {
  name         = "peering2"
  network      = google_compute_network.other.self_link
  peer_network = google_compute_network.default.self_link
}

resource "google_compute_network" "default" {
  name                    = "foobar"
  auto_create_subnetworks = "false"
}

resource "google_compute_network" "other" {
  name                    = "other"
  auto_create_subnetworks = "false"
}
data "google_compute_network_peering" "peering1_ds" {

  network    = google_compute_network_peering.peering1.network
}
```
