create-resolver-endpoint¶

Description¶

Creates a resolver endpoint. There are two types of resolver endpoints, inbound and outbound:

An inbound resolver endpoint forwards DNS queries to the DNS service for a VPC from your network or another VPC.
An outbound resolver endpoint forwards DNS queries from the DNS service for a VPC to your network or another VPC.

Synopsis¶

  create-resolver-endpoint
--creator-request-id <value>
[--name <value>]
--security-group-ids <value>
--direction <value>
--ip-addresses <value>
[--tags <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options¶

--creator-request-id (string)

A unique string that identifies the request and that allows failed requests to be retried without the risk of executing the operation twice. CreatorRequestId can be any unique string, for example, a date/time stamp.

--name (string)

A friendly name that lets you easily find a configuration in the Resolver dashboard in the Route 53 console.

--security-group-ids (list)

The ID of one or more security groups that you want to use to control access to this VPC. The security group that you specify must include one or more inbound rules (for inbound resolver endpoints) or outbound rules (for outbound resolver endpoints).

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--direction (string)

Specify the applicable value:

INBOUND : Resolver forwards DNS queries to the DNS service for a VPC from your network or another VPC

OUTBOUND : Resolver forwards DNS queries from the DNS service for a VPC to your network or another VPC

Possible values:

INBOUND

OUTBOUND

--ip-addresses (list)

The subnets and IP addresses in your VPC that you want DNS queries to pass through on the way from your VPCs to your network (for outbound endpoints) or on the way from your network to your VPCs (for inbound resolver endpoints).

(structure)

In an CreateResolverEndpoint request, a subnet and IP address that you want to use for DNS queries.

SubnetId -> (string)

The subnet that contains the IP address.

Ip -> (string)

The IP address that you want to use for DNS queries.

Shorthand Syntax:

SubnetId=string,Ip=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "SubnetId": "string",
    "Ip": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--tags (list)

A list of the tag keys and values that you want to associate with the endpoint.

(structure)

One tag that you want to add to the specified resource. A tag consists of a Key (a name for the tag) and a Value .

Key -> (string)

The name for the tag. For example, if you want to associate Resolver resources with the account IDs of your customers for billing purposes, the value of Key might be account-id .

Value -> (string)

The value for the tag. For example, if Key is account-id , then Value might be the ID of the customer account that you’re creating the resource for.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "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.

--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 create an inbound Resolver endpoint

The following create-resolver-endpoint example creates an inbound Resolver endpoint. You can use the same command to create both inbound and outbound endpoints.

aws route53resolver create-resolver-endpoint
–name my-inbound-endpoint –creator-request-id 2020-01-01-18:47 –security-group-ids “sg-f62bexam” –direction INBOUND –ip-addresses SubnetId=subnet-ba47exam,Ip=192.0.2.255 SubnetId=subnet-12d8exam,Ip=192.0.2.254

Output:

{
    "ResolverEndpoint": {
        "Id": "rslvr-in-f9ab8a03f1example",
        "CreatorRequestId": "2020-01-01-18:47",
        "Arn": "arn:aws:route53resolver:us-west-2:111122223333:resolver-endpoint/rslvr-in-f9ab8a03f1example",
        "Name": "my-inbound-endpoint",
        "SecurityGroupIds": [
            "sg-f62bexam"
        ],
        "Direction": "INBOUND",
        "IpAddressCount": 2,
        "HostVPCId": "vpc-304examp",
        "Status": "CREATING",
        "StatusMessage": "[Trace id: 1-5dc1ff84-f3477826e4a190025example] Creating the Resolver Endpoint",
        "CreationTime": "2020-01-01T23:02:29.583Z",
        "ModificationTime": "2020-01-01T23:02:29.583Z"
    }
}

To create an outbound Resolver endpoint

The following create-resolver-endpoint example creates an outbound resolver endpoint using the values in the JSON-formatted document create-outbound-resolver-endpoint.json.

aws route53resolver create-resolver-endpoint \
    --cli-input-json file://c:\temp\create-outbound-resolver-endpoint.json

Contents of create-outbound-resolver-endpoint.json:

{
   "CreatorRequestId": "2020-01-01-18:47",
   "Direction": "OUTBOUND",
   "IpAddresses": [
      {
         "Ip": "192.0.2.255",
         "SubnetId": "subnet-ba47exam"
      },
      {
         "Ip": "192.0.2.254",
         "SubnetId": "subnet-12d8exam"
      }
   ],
   "Name": "my-outbound-endpoint",
   "SecurityGroupIds": [ "sg-05cd7b25d6example" ],
   "Tags": [
      {
         "Key": "my-key-name",
         "Value": "my-key-value"
      }
   ]
}
