connect

Description

Connects this local peering gateway (LPG) to another one in the same region.

This operation must be called by the VCN administrator who is designated as the requestor in the peering relationship. The acceptor must implement an Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy that gives the requestor permission to connect to LPGs in the acceptor’s compartment. Without that permission, this operation will fail. For more information, see VCN Peering.

Usage

oci network local-peering-gateway connect [OPTIONS]

Required Parameters

--local-peering-gateway-id [text]

The OCID of the local peering gateway.

--peer-id [text]

The OCID of the LPG you want to peer with.

Optional Parameters

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

Example using required parameter

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration and appropriate security policies before trying the examples.
