Example 1: Updates the description of an existing ingress (inbound) security group rule.
$existingInboundRule = Get-EC2SecurityGroupRule -SecurityGroupRuleId "sgr-1234567890" $ruleWithUpdatedDescription = [Amazon.EC2.Model.SecurityGroupRuleDescription]@{ "SecurityGroupRuleId" = $existingInboundRule.SecurityGroupRuleId "Description" = "Updated rule description" } Update-EC2SecurityGroupRuleIngressDescription -GroupId $existingInboundRule.GroupId -SecurityGroupRuleDescription $ruleWithUpdatedDescription
