Request Syntax

response = client.create_direct_connect_gateway_association(
    directConnectGatewayId='string',
    gatewayId='string',
    addAllowedPrefixesToDirectConnectGateway=[
        {
            'cidr': 'string'
        },
    ],
    virtualGatewayId='string'
)

Parameters:

• directConnectGatewayId (string) –

  [REQUIRED]

  The ID of the Direct Connect gateway.

• gatewayId (string) – The ID of the virtual private gateway or transit gateway.

• addAllowedPrefixesToDirectConnectGateway (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.

  • (dict) –

    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.

• virtualGatewayId (string) – The ID of the virtual private gateway.

Return type:

dict
