update-connection

Description

Updates the Direct Connect dedicated connection configuration.

You can update the following parameters for a connection:

  • The connection name

  • The connection’s MAC Security (MACsec) encryption mode.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  update-connection
--connection-id <value>
[--connection-name <value>]
[--encryption-mode <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--connection-id (string)

The ID of the dedicated connection.

You can use DescribeConnections to retrieve the connection ID.

--connection-name (string)

The name of the connection.

--encryption-mode (string)

The connection MAC Security (MACsec) encryption mode.

The valid values are no_encrypt , should_encrypt , and must_encrypt .

--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.
