Creates a Connect peer for a specified transit gateway Connect attachment between a transit gateway and an appliance.
The peer address and transit gateway address must be the same IP address family (IPv4 or IPv6).
For more information, see Connect peers in the Transit Gateways Guide .

--transit-gateway-attachment-id
(string)
The ID of the Connect attachment.
--transit-gateway-address
(string)
The peer IP address (GRE outer IP address) on the transit gateway side of the Connect peer, which must be specified from a transit gateway CIDR block. If not specified, Amazon automatically assigns the first available IP address from the transit gateway CIDR block.
--peer-address
(string)
The peer IP address (GRE outer IP address) on the appliance side of the Connect peer.
--bgp-options
(structure)
The BGP options for the Connect peer.
PeerAsn -> (long)
The peer Autonomous System Number (ASN).
Shorthand Syntax:
PeerAsn=long
JSON Syntax:
{
"PeerAsn": long
}
--inside-cidr-blocks
(list)
The range of inside IP addresses that are used for BGP peering. You must specify a size /29 IPv4 CIDR block from the
169.254.0.0/16
range. The first address from the range must be configured on the appliance as the BGP IP address. You can also optionally specify a size /125 IPv6 CIDR block from thefd00::/8
range.(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
--tag-specifications
(list)
The tags to apply to the Connect peer.
(structure)
The tags to apply to a resource when the resource is being created.
Note
The
Valid Values
lists all the resource types that can be tagged. However, the action you’re using might not support tagging all of these resource types. If you try to tag a resource type that is unsupported for the action you’re using, you’ll get an error.ResourceType -> (string)
The type of resource to tag on creation.
Tags -> (list)
The tags to apply to the resource.
(structure)
Describes a tag.
Key -> (string)
The key of the tag.
Constraints: Tag keys are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 127 Unicode characters. May not begin with
aws:
.Value -> (string)
The value of the tag.
Constraints: Tag values are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 256 Unicode characters.

--dry-run
| --no-dry-run
(boolean)
Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is
DryRunOperation
. Otherwise, it isUnauthorizedOperation
.
--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.
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 create a Transit Gateway Connect peer
The following create-transit-gateway-connect-peer
example creates a Connect peer.
