Returns a list of subnet group descriptions. If a subnet group name is specified, the list will contain only the description of that group.
See also: AWS API Documentation
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
describe-subnet-groups
is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate
argument.
When using --output text
and the --query
argument on a paginated response, the --query
argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: SubnetGroups
describe-subnet-groups
[--subnet-group-names <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]
--subnet-group-names
(list)
The name of the subnet group.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--cli-input-json
| --cli-input-yaml
(string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml
.
--starting-token
(string)
A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the
NextToken
from a previously truncated response.For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .
--page-size
(integer)
The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command’s output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.
For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .
--max-items
(integer)
The total number of items to return in the command’s output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a
NextToken
is provided in the command’s output. To resume pagination, provide theNextToken
value in thestarting-token
argument of a subsequent command. Do not use theNextToken
response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .
--generate-cli-skeleton
(string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input
, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json
. Similarly, if provided yaml-input
it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
--cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
To describe subnet groups defined in DAX
The following describe-subnet-groups
example retrieves details for the subnet groups defined in DAX.
aws dax describe-subnet-groups

NextToken -> (string)
Provides an identifier to allow retrieval of paginated results.
SubnetGroups -> (list)
An array of subnet groups. Each element in the array represents a single subnet group.
(structure)
Represents the output of one of the following actions:
CreateSubnetGroup
ModifySubnetGroup
SubnetGroupName -> (string)
The name of the subnet group.
Description -> (string)
The description of the subnet group.
VpcId -> (string)
The Amazon Virtual Private Cloud identifier (VPC ID) of the subnet group.
Subnets -> (list)
A list of subnets associated with the subnet group.
(structure)
Represents the subnet associated with a DAX cluster. This parameter refers to subnets defined in Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) and used with DAX.
SubnetIdentifier -> (string)
