create-direct-connect-gateway-association¶

Description¶

Creates an association between a Direct Connect gateway and a virtual private gateway. The virtual private gateway must be attached to a VPC and must not be associated with another Direct Connect gateway.

Synopsis¶

  create-direct-connect-gateway-association
--direct-connect-gateway-id <value>
[--gateway-id <value>]
[--add-allowed-prefixes-to-direct-connect-gateway <value>]
[--virtual-gateway-id <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--direct-connect-gateway-id (string)

The ID of the Direct Connect gateway.

--gateway-id (string)

The ID of the virtual private gateway or transit gateway.

--add-allowed-prefixes-to-direct-connect-gateway (list)

The Amazon VPC prefixes to advertise to the Direct Connect gateway

This parameter is required when you create an association to a transit gateway.

For information about how to set the prefixes, see Allowed Prefixes in the Direct Connect User Guide .

(structure)

Information about a route filter prefix that a customer can advertise through Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) over a public virtual interface.

cidr -> (string)

The CIDR block for the advertised route. Separate multiple routes using commas. An IPv6 CIDR must use /64 or shorter.

Shorthand Syntax:

cidr=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "cidr": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--virtual-gateway-id (string)

The ID of the virtual private gateway.

--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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

To associate a virtual private gateway with a Direct Connect gateway

The following example associates virtual private gateway vgw-6efe725e with Direct Connect gateway 5f294f92-bafb-4011-916d-9b0bexample. You must run the command in the region in which the virtual private gateway is located.

Command:

aws directconnect create-direct-connect-gateway-association --direct-connect-gateway-id 5f294f92-bafb-4011-916d-9b0bexample --virtual-gateway-id vgw-6efe725e

Output:

{
  "directConnectGatewayAssociation": {
      "associationState": "associating",
      "virtualGatewayOwnerAccount": "123456789012",
      "directConnectGatewayId": "5f294f92-bafb-4011-916d-9b0bexample",
      "virtualGatewayId": "vgw-6efe725e",
      "virtualGatewayRegion": "us-east-2"
  }
}

Output¶

directConnectGatewayAssociation -> (structure)

The association to be created.

directConnectGatewayId -> (string)

The ID of the Direct Connect gateway.

directConnectGatewayOwnerAccount -> (string)

The ID of the Amazon Web Services account that owns the associated gateway.

associationState -> (string)

The state of the association. The following are the possible values:

associating : The initial state after calling CreateDirectConnectGatewayAssociation .
