    FlowOperationId='string'
)
Parameters:
  • FirewallArn (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the firewall.

  • AvailabilityZone (string) –

    The ID of the Availability Zone where the firewall is located. For example, us-east-2a.

    Defines the scope a flow operation. You can use up to 20 filters to configure a single flow operation.

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • FirewallArn (string) –

      The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the firewall.

    • AvailabilityZone (string) –

      The ID of the Availability Zone where the firewall is located. For example, us-east-2a.

      Defines the scope a flow operation. You can use up to 20 filters to configure a single flow operation.

    • FlowOperationId (string) –

      A unique identifier for the flow operation. This ID is returned in the responses to start and list commands. You provide to describe commands.

    • FlowOperationType (string) –

      Defines the type of FlowOperation.

    • FlowOperationStatus (string) –

      Returns the status of the flow operation. This string is returned in the responses to start, list, and describe commands.

      If the status is COMPLETED_WITH_ERRORS, results may be returned with any number of Flows missing from the response. If the status is FAILED, Flows returned will be empty.

    • StatusMessage (string) –

      If the asynchronous operation fails, Network Firewall populates this with the reason for the error or failure. Options include Flow operation error and Flow timeout.

    • FlowRequestTimestamp (datetime) –

      A timestamp indicating when the Suricata engine identified flows impacted by an operation.

    • FlowOperation (dict) –

      Returns key information about a flow operation, such as related statuses, unique identifiers, and all filters defined in the operation.

      • MinimumFlowAgeInSeconds (integer) –

        The reqested FlowOperation ignores flows with an age (in seconds) lower than MinimumFlowAgeInSeconds. You provide this for start commands.

      • FlowFilters (list) –

        Defines the scope a flow operation. You can use up to 20 filters to configure a single flow operation.

        • (dict) –

          Defines the scope a flow operation. You can use up to 20 filters to configure a single flow operation.

          • SourceAddress (dict) –

            A single IP address specification. This is used in the MatchAttributes source and destination specifications.

            • AddressDefinition (string) –

              Specify an IP address or a block of IP addresses in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation. Network Firewall supports all address ranges for IPv4 and IPv6.

              Examples:

              • To configure Network Firewall to inspect for the IP address 192.0.2.44, specify 192.0.2.44/32.

              • To configure Network Firewall to inspect for IP addresses from 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255, specify 192.0.2.0/24.

              • To configure Network Firewall to inspect for the IP address 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0111, specify 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0111/128.

              • To configure Network Firewall to inspect for IP addresses from 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000 to 1111:0000:0000:0000:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff, specify 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000/64.
