authorize-cache-security-group-ingress¶

Description¶

Allows network ingress to a cache security group. Applications using ElastiCache must be running on Amazon EC2, and Amazon EC2 security groups are used as the authorization mechanism.

Note

You cannot authorize ingress from an Amazon EC2 security group in one region to an ElastiCache cluster in another region.

Synopsis¶

  authorize-cache-security-group-ingress
--cache-security-group-name <value>
--ec2-security-group-name <value>
--ec2-security-group-owner-id <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options¶

--cache-security-group-name (string)

The cache security group that allows network ingress.

--ec2-security-group-name (string)

The Amazon EC2 security group to be authorized for ingress to the cache security group.

--ec2-security-group-owner-id (string)

The AWS account number of the Amazon EC2 security group owner. Note that this is not the same thing as an AWS access key ID - you must provide a valid AWS account number for this parameter.

--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.

--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.

Examples¶

To authorize cache security group ingress

The following ‘’authorize-cache-security-group-ingress’’ example allows network ingress to a cache security group.

aws elasticache authorize-cache-security-group-ingress \
     --cache-security-group-name  "my-sec-grp" \
     --ec2-security-group-name "my-ec2-sec-grp" \
     --ec2-security-group-owner-id "1234567890"

This command produces no output.
