reset_instance_attribute

EC2.Client.reset_instance_attribute(**kwargs)

Resets an attribute of an instance to its default value. To reset the kernel or ramdisk , the instance must be in a stopped state. To reset the sourceDestCheck , the instance can be either running or stopped.

The sourceDestCheck attribute controls whether source/destination checking is enabled. The default value is true , which means checking is enabled. This value must be false for a NAT instance to perform NAT. For more information, see NAT Instances in the Amazon VPC User Guide .
