NetworkInterface

Learn how to create, update, and manage AWS EC2 NetworkInterfaces using Alchemy Cloud Control.

The NetworkInterface resource allows you to manage AWS EC2 NetworkInterfaces that enable communication between your instances and other resources.

Create a basic NetworkInterface with required properties and a common optional property.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";
const networkInterface = await AWS.EC2.NetworkInterface("myNetworkInterface", {
SubnetId: "subnet-0abcd1234efgh5678",
Description: "Primary network interface for my EC2 instance",
PrivateIpAddress: "192.168.1.10"
});

Configure a NetworkInterface with multiple private IP addresses and a security group.

const advancedNetworkInterface = await AWS.EC2.NetworkInterface("myAdvancedNetworkInterface", {
SubnetId: "subnet-0abcd1234efgh5678",
Description: "Advanced network interface with multiple IPs",
PrivateIpAddresses: [
{ Primary: true, PrivateIpAddress: "192.168.1.20" },
{ Primary: false, PrivateIpAddress: "192.168.1.21" }
],
GroupSet: ["sg-0abcd1234efgh5678"]
});

Create a NetworkInterface that allocates a secondary private IP address.

const networkInterfaceWithSecondaryIP = await AWS.EC2.NetworkInterface("myNetworkInterfaceWithSecondaryIP", {
SubnetId: "subnet-0abcd1234efgh5678",
SecondaryPrivateIpAddressCount: 2,
Description: "Network interface with secondary private IPs"
});

Set up a NetworkInterface with IPv6 support.

const ipv6NetworkInterface = await AWS.EC2.NetworkInterface("myIPv6NetworkInterface", {
SubnetId: "subnet-0abcd1234efgh5678",
Description: "Network interface with IPv6",
Ipv6Prefixes: [{ Ipv6Prefix: "2001:db8:abcd:0012::/64" }],
Ipv6AddressCount: 1
});

Configure a NetworkInterface with source/destination checking disabled.

const networkInterfaceWithoutCheck = await AWS.EC2.NetworkInterface("myNetworkInterfaceWithoutCheck", {
SubnetId: "subnet-0abcd1234efgh5678",
Description: "Network interface with source/destination check disabled",
SourceDestCheck: false
});
