Response Structure
(dict) --
A JSON object containing the following fields:
GatewayARN (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the gateway. Use the ListGateways operation to return a list of gateways for your account and Amazon Web Services Region.
GatewayId (string) --
The unique identifier assigned to your gateway during activation. This ID becomes part of the gateway Amazon Resource Name (ARN), which you use as input for other operations.
GatewayName (string) --
The name you configured for your gateway.
GatewayTimezone (string) --
A value that indicates the time zone configured for the gateway.
GatewayState (string) --
A value that indicates the operating state of the gateway.
GatewayNetworkInterfaces (list) --
A NetworkInterface array that contains descriptions of the gateway network interfaces.
(dict) --
Describes a gateway's network interface.
Ipv4Address (string) --
The Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) address of the interface.
MacAddress (string) --
The Media Access Control (MAC) address of the interface.
Note
This is currently unsupported and will not be returned in output.
Ipv6Address (string) --
The Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) address of the interface. Currently not supported .
GatewayType (string) --
The type of the gateway.
NextUpdateAvailabilityDate (string) --

Ec2InstanceRegion (string) --
The Amazon Web Services Region where the Amazon EC2 instance is located.
Tags (list) --
A list of up to 50 tags assigned to the gateway, sorted alphabetically by key name. Each tag is a key-value pair. For a gateway with more than 10 tags assigned, you can view all tags using the ListTagsForResource API operation.
(dict) --
A key-value pair that helps you manage, filter, and search for your resource. Allowed characters: letters, white space, and numbers, representable in UTF-8, and the following characters: + - = . _ : /.
Key (string) --
Tag key. The key can't start with aws:.
Value (string) --
Value of the tag key.
VPCEndpoint (string) --
The configuration settings for the virtual private cloud (VPC) endpoint for your gateway.

Date after which this gateway will not receive software updates for new features.
DeprecationDate (string) --
Date after which this gateway will not receive software updates for new features and bug fixes.
GatewayCapacity (string) --
Specifies the size of the gateway's metadata cache.
SupportedGatewayCapacities (list) --
A list of the metadata cache sizes that the gateway can support based on its current hardware specifications.
(string) --
HostEnvironmentId (string) --
A unique identifier for the specific instance of the host platform running the gateway. This value is only available for certain host environments, and its format depends on the host environment type.
{'Gateways': {'HostEnvironment': 'VMWARE | HYPER-V | EC2 | KVM | OTHER | '
'SNOWBALL',
'HostEnvironmentId': 'string'}}
Lists gateways owned by an Amazon Web Services account in an Amazon Web Services Region specified in the request. The returned list is ordered by gateway Amazon Resource Name (ARN).
By default, the operation returns a maximum of 100 gateways. This operation supports pagination that allows you to optionally reduce the number of gateways returned in a response.
If you have more gateways than are returned in a response (that is, the response returns only a truncated list of your gateways), the response contains a marker that you can specify in your next request to fetch the next page of gateways.
