Creates a default VPC with a size /16 IPv4 CIDR block and a default subnet in each Availability Zone. For more information about the components of a default VPC, see Default VPCs in the Amazon VPC User Guide. You cannot specify the components of the default VPC yourself.

If you deleted your previous default VPC, you can create a default VPC. You cannot have more than one default VPC per Region.

Creates a VPC with the specified CIDR blocks. For more information, see IP addressing for your VPCs and subnets in the Amazon VPC User Guide.

You can optionally request an IPv6 CIDR block for the VPC. You can request an Amazon-provided IPv6 CIDR block from Amazon's pool of IPv6 addresses or an IPv6 CIDR block from an IPv6 address pool that you provisioned through bring your own IP addresses ( BYOIP).

By default, each instance that you launch in the VPC has the default DHCP options, which include only a default DNS server that we provide (AmazonProvidedDNS). For more information, see DHCP option sets in the Amazon VPC User Guide.

You can specify the instance tenancy value for the VPC when you create it. You can't change this value for the VPC after you create it. For more information, see Dedicated Instances in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

type CidrBlock:

string

param CidrBlock:

The IPv4 network range for the VPC, in CIDR notation. For example, 10.0.0.0/16. We modify the specified CIDR block to its canonical form; for example, if you specify 100.68.0.18/18, we modify it to 100.68.0.0/18.

type Ipv6Pool:

string

param Ipv6Pool:

The ID of an IPv6 address pool from which to allocate the IPv6 CIDR block.

type Ipv6CidrBlock:

string

param Ipv6CidrBlock:

The IPv6 CIDR block from the IPv6 address pool. You must also specify Ipv6Pool in the request.

To let Amazon choose the IPv6 CIDR block for you, omit this parameter.

type Ipv4IpamPoolId:

string

param Ipv4IpamPoolId:

The ID of an IPv4 IPAM pool you want to use for allocating this VPC's CIDR. For more information, see What is IPAM? in the Amazon VPC IPAM User Guide.

type Ipv4NetmaskLength:

integer

param Ipv4NetmaskLength:

The netmask length of the IPv4 CIDR you want to allocate to this VPC from an Amazon VPC IP Address Manager (IPAM) pool. For more information about IPAM, see What is IPAM? in the Amazon VPC IPAM User Guide.

type Ipv6IpamPoolId:

string

param Ipv6IpamPoolId:

The ID of an IPv6 IPAM pool which will be used to allocate this VPC an IPv6 CIDR. IPAM is a VPC feature that you can use to automate your IP address management workflows including assigning, tracking, troubleshooting, and auditing IP addresses across Amazon Web Services Regions and accounts throughout your Amazon Web Services Organization. For more information, see What is IPAM? in the Amazon VPC IPAM User Guide.

type TagSpecifications:

list

param TagSpecifications:

The tags to assign to the VPC.

  • (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.

    • 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:.

          The value of the tag.

          Constraints: Tag values are case-sensitive and accept a maximum of 256 Unicode characters.

type DryRun:

boolean

param DryRun:

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.

type InstanceTenancy:

string

param InstanceTenancy:

The tenancy options for instances launched into the VPC. For default, instances are launched with shared tenancy by default. You can launch instances with any tenancy into a shared tenancy VPC. For dedicated, instances are launched as dedicated tenancy instances by default. You can only launch instances with a tenancy of dedicated or host into a dedicated tenancy VPC.

Important: The host value cannot be used with this parameter. Use the default or dedicated values only.

Default: default

type AmazonProvidedIpv6CidrBlock:

boolean

param AmazonProvidedIpv6CidrBlock:

Requests an Amazon-provided IPv6 CIDR block with a /56 prefix length for the VPC. You cannot specify the range of IP addresses, or the size of the CIDR block.

rtype:

dict

type Filters:

list

param Filters:

The filters.

  • cidr - The primary IPv4 CIDR block of the VPC. The CIDR block you specify must exactly match the VPC's CIDR block for information to be returned for the VPC. Must contain the slash followed by one or two digits (for example, /28).

  • cidr-block-association.cidr-block - An IPv4 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • cidr-block-association.association-id - The association ID for an IPv4 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • cidr-block-association.state - The state of an IPv4 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • dhcp-options-id - The ID of a set of DHCP options.

  • ipv6-cidr-block-association.ipv6-cidr-block - An IPv6 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • ipv6-cidr-block-association.ipv6-pool - The ID of the IPv6 address pool from which the IPv6 CIDR block is allocated.

  • ipv6-cidr-block-association.association-id - The association ID for an IPv6 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • ipv6-cidr-block-association.state - The state of an IPv6 CIDR block associated with the VPC.

  • is-default - Indicates whether the VPC is the default VPC.

  • owner-id - The ID of the Amazon Web Services account that owns the VPC.

  • state - The state of the VPC ( pending | available).

  • tag - The key/value combination of a tag assigned to the resource. Use the tag key in the filter name and the tag value as the filter value. For example, to find all resources that have a tag with the key Owner and the value TeamA, specify tag:Owner for the filter name and TeamA for the filter value.

  • tag-key - The key of a tag assigned to the resource. Use this filter to find all resources assigned a tag with a specific key, regardless of the tag value.

  • vpc-id - The ID of the VPC.

  • (dict) --

    A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results from a describe operation. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by specific criteria, such as tags, attributes, or IDs.

    If you specify multiple filters, the filters are joined with an AND, and the request returns only results that match all of the specified filters.

    For more information, see List and filter using the CLI and API in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

    • Name (string) --

      The name of the filter. Filter names are case-sensitive.

    • Values (list) --

      The filter values. Filter values are case-sensitive. If you specify multiple values for a filter, the values are joined with an OR, and the request returns all results that match any of the specified values.

      • (string) --

type VpcIds:

list

param VpcIds:

The IDs of the VPCs.

  • (string) --

type NextToken:

string

param NextToken:

The token returned from a previous paginated request. Pagination continues from the end of the items returned by the previous request.

type MaxResults:

integer

param MaxResults:

The maximum number of items to return for this request. To get the next page of items, make another request with the token returned in the output. For more information, see Pagination.

type DryRun:

boolean

param DryRun:

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.

rtype:

dict
