[ aws . directconnect ]

describe-interconnects

Description

Lists the interconnects owned by the Amazon Web Services account or only the specified interconnect.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  describe-interconnects
[--interconnect-id <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--interconnect-id (string)

The ID of the interconnect.

--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 list interconnects

The following describe-interconnects command lists the interconnects owned by your AWS account:

aws directconnect describe-interconnects

Output:

{
    "interconnects": [
        {
            "region": "sa-east-1",
            "bandwidth": "1Gbps",
            "location": "TIVIT",
            "interconnectName": "1G Interconnect to AWS",
            "interconnectId": "dxcon-fgktov66",
            "interconnectState": "down"
        }
    ]
}

Output

interconnects -> (list)

The interconnects.

(structure)

Information about an interconnect.

interconnectId -> (string)

The ID of the interconnect.

interconnectName -> (string)

The name of the interconnect.

interconnectState -> (string)

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

• requested : The initial state of an interconnect. The interconnect stays in the requested state until the Letter of Authorization (LOA) is sent to the customer.

• pending : The interconnect is approved, and is being initialized.

• available : The network link is up, and the interconnect is ready for use.

• down : The network link is down.

• deleting : The interconnect is being deleted.

• deleted : The interconnect is deleted.

• unknown : The state of the interconnect is not available.

region -> (string)

The Amazon Web Services Region where the connection is located.

location -> (string)

The location of the connection.

bandwidth -> (string)

The bandwidth of the connection.

loaIssueTime -> (timestamp)

The time of the most recent call to DescribeLoa for this connection.

lagId -> (string)

The ID of the LAG.

awsDevice -> (string)

The Direct Connect endpoint on which the physical connection terminates.

jumboFrameCapable -> (boolean)

Indicates whether jumbo frames (9001 MTU) are supported.

awsDeviceV2 -> (string)

The Direct Connect endpoint that terminates the physical connection.

awsLogicalDeviceId -> (string)

The Direct Connect endpoint that terminates the logical connection. This device might be different than the device that terminates the physical connection.

hasLogicalRedundancy -> (string)

Indicates whether the interconnect supports a secondary BGP in the same address family (IPv4/IPv6).

tags -> (list)

The tags associated with the interconnect.

(structure)

Information about a tag.

key -> (string)
