Description

Replaces an existing route within a route table in a VPC.

Options

--destination-prefix-list-id (string)

The ID of the prefix list for the route.

--vpc-endpoint-id (string)

The ID of a VPC endpoint. Supported for Gateway Load Balancer endpoints only.

--local-target | --no-local-target (boolean)

Specifies whether to reset the local route to its default target (local ).

--transit-gateway-id (string)

The ID of a transit gateway.

--local-gateway-id (string)

The ID of the local gateway.

--carrier-gateway-id (string)

[IPv4 traffic only] The ID of a carrier gateway.

--core-network-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the core network.

--dry-run | --no-dry-run (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 .

--route-table-id (string)

The ID of the route table.

--destination-cidr-block (string)

The IPv4 CIDR address block used for the destination match. The value that you provide must match the CIDR of an existing route in the table.

--gateway-id (string)

The ID of an internet gateway or virtual private gateway.

--destination-ipv6-cidr-block (string)

The IPv6 CIDR address block used for the destination match. The value that you provide must match the CIDR of an existing route in the table.

--egress-only-internet-gateway-id (string)

[IPv6 traffic only] The ID of an egress-only internet gateway.

--instance-id (string)

The ID of a NAT instance in your VPC.

--network-interface-id (string)

The ID of a network interface.

--vpc-peering-connection-id (string)

The ID of a VPC peering connection.

--nat-gateway-id (string)

[IPv4 traffic only] The ID of a NAT gateway.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To replace a route

This example replaces the specified route in the specified route table. The new route matches the specified CIDR and sends the traffic to the specified virtual private gateway. If the command succeeds, no output is returned.

Command:

aws ec2 replace-route --route-table-id rtb-22574640 --destination-cidr-block 10.0.0.0/16 --gateway-id vgw-9a4cacf3

Output

None
