In GCE: seeds: "10.142.14.27"
In AWS (new node being added): seeds:
"35.196.96.247,35.227.127.245,35.196.241.232" (these are the public IP
addresses of 3 nodes from GCE)

 I have verified that I am able to do cqlsh from the AWS instance to all 3
ip addresses.

We use the listen_interface setting instead of listen_address.

In GCE: listen_interface: eth0 (running ubuntu 14.04 LTS)
In AWS: listen_interface: ens3 (running ubuntu 16.04 LTS)

I tried setting broadcast_address to one instance in GCE: broadcast_address:
35.196.96.247

In AWS: broadcast_address: 13.127.89.251 (this is the public/elastic IP of
the node in AWS)

rpc_address:

Like listen_address, we use rpc_interface.
In GCE: rpc_interface:  eth0
In AWS: rpc_interface:  ens3

In both setups, we currently use GossipingPropertyFileSnitch.
The cassandra-rackdc.properties files from both setups:
GCE:
dc=DC1
rack=RAC1

AWS:
dc=DC2
rack=RAC1

When the google cloud instances started up, we hadn't set this explicitly -
so, they started off with default value (auto_bootstrap: true)
However, as outlined in the datastax doc for adding new dc, I had added
'auto_bootstrap: false' to the google cloud instances (not restarted the
service as per the doc).

In the AWS instance, I had added 'auto_bootstrap: false' - the doc says we
need to do "nodetool rebuild" and hence no automatic bootstrapping.
But, haven't gotten to that step yet.

Thanks,
Kunal
