aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress
Adds the specified ingress rules to a security group. An inbound rule permits instances to receive traffic from the specified IPv4 or IPv6 CIDR address ranges, or from the instances associated with the specified destination security groups. You specify a protocol for each rule (for example, TCP). For TCP and UDP, you must also specify the destination port or port range. For ICMP/ICMPv6, you must also specify the ICMP/ICMPv6 type and code. You can use -1 to mean all types or all codes. Rule changes are propagated to instances within the security group as quickly as possible. However, a small delay might occur. For more information about VPC security group limits, see Amazon VPC Limits
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--cidr-ip <string> | The IPv4 address range, in CIDR format. You can't specify this parameter when specifying a source security group. To specify an IPv6 address range, use a set of IP permissions. Alternatively, use a set of IP permissions to specify multiple rules and a description for the rule |
--from-port <integer> | The start of port range for the TCP and UDP protocols, or an ICMP type number. For the ICMP type number, use -1 to specify all types. If you specify all ICMP types, you must specify all codes. Alternatively, use a set of IP permissions to specify multiple rules and a description for the rule |
--group-id <string> | The ID of the security group. You must specify either the security group ID or the security group name in the request. For security groups in a nondefault VPC, you must specify the security group ID |
--group-name <string> | [EC2-Classic, default VPC] The name of the security group. You must specify either the security group ID or the security group name in the request |
--ip-permissions <list> | The sets of IP permissions |
--ip-protocol <string> | The IP protocol name (tcp, udp, icmp) or number (see Protocol Numbers). To specify icmpv6, use a set of IP permissions. [VPC only] Use -1 to specify all protocols. If you specify -1 or a protocol other than tcp, udp, or icmp, traffic on all ports is allowed, regardless of any ports you specify. Alternatively, use a set of IP permissions to specify multiple rules and a description for the rule |
--source-security-group-name <string> | [EC2-Classic, default VPC] The name of the source security group. You can't specify this parameter in combination with the following parameters: the CIDR IP address range, the start of the port range, the IP protocol, and the end of the port range. Creates rules that grant full ICMP, UDP, and TCP access. To create a rule with a specific IP protocol and port range, use a set of IP permissions instead. For EC2-VPC, the source security group must be in the same VPC |
--source-security-group-owner-id <string> | [nondefault VPC] The AWS account ID for the source security group, if the source security group is in a different account. You can't specify this parameter in combination with the following parameters: the CIDR IP address range, the IP protocol, the start of the port range, and the end of the port range. Creates rules that grant full ICMP, UDP, and TCP access. To create a rule with a specific IP protocol and port range, use a set of IP permissions instead |
--to-port <integer> | The end of port range for the TCP and UDP protocols, or an ICMP code number. For the ICMP code number, use -1 to specify all codes. If you specify all ICMP types, you must specify all codes. Alternatively, use a set of IP permissions to specify multiple rules and a description for the rule |
--dry-run | 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 |
--no-dry-run | 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 |
--protocol <string> | The IP protocol: tcp | udp | icmp (VPC only) Use all to specify all protocols.If this argument is provided without also providing the port argument, then it will be applied to all ports for the specified protocol |
--port <string> | For TCP or UDP: The range of ports to allow. A single integer or a range (min-max).For ICMP: A single integer or a range (type-code) representing the ICMP type number and the ICMP code number respectively. A value of -1 indicates all ICMP codes for all ICMP types. A value of -1 just for type indicates all ICMP codes for the specified ICMP type |
--cidr <string> | The CIDR IP range |
--source-group <string> | The name or ID of the source security group |
--group-owner <string> | The AWS account ID that owns the source security group. Cannot be used when specifying a CIDR IP address |
--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 |
