create_network_acl#

EC2.Client.create_network_acl(**kwargs)#

Creates a network ACL in a VPC. Network ACLs provide an optional layer of security (in addition to security groups) for the instances in your VPC.

For more information, see Network ACLs in the Amazon VPC User Guide.

Parameters:

DryRun (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 is UnauthorizedOperation.
VpcId (string) –
[REQUIRED]

The ID of the VPC.
TagSpecifications (list) –
The tags to assign to the network ACL.
- (dict) –
  
  The tags to apply to a resource when the resource is being created. When you specify a tag, you must specify the resource type to tag, otherwise the request will fail.
  
  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.
    - (dict) –
      
      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.
ClientToken (string) –
Unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency.

This field is autopopulated if not provided.
