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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

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)

The key.

value -> (string)

The value.

providerName -> (string)

The name of the service provider associated with the interconnect.
