NAME VM::EC2::REST::dhcp

SYNOPSIS

use VM::EC2 qw(:vpn);

METHODS

These methods manage DHCP Option objects, which can then be applied to a VPC to configure the DHCP options applied to running instances. You get these methods when you import the tag ":vpn".

Implemented: AssociateDhcpOptions CreateDhcpOptions DeleteDhcpOptions DescribeDhcpOptions

Unimplemented; (none)

$options = $ec2->create_dhcp_options(\%configuration_list)

This method creates a DhcpOption object, The single required argument is a configuration list hash (which can be passed either as a hashref or a flattened hash) with one or more of the following keys:

-domain_name            Domain name for instances running in this VPC.

-domain_name_servers    Scalar or arrayref containing up to 4 IP addresses of
                        domain name servers for this VPC.

-ntp_servers            Scalar or arrayref containing up to 4 IP addresses
                        of network time protocol servers

-netbios_name_servers   Scalar or arrayref containing up to 4 IP addresses for
                        NetBIOS name servers.

-netbios_node_type      The NetBios node type (1,2,4 or 8). Amazon recommends
                        using "2" at this time.

On successful completion, a VM::EC2::VPC::DhcpOptions object will be returned. This can be associated with a VPC using the VPC object's set_dhcp_options() method:

$vpc     = $ec2->create_vpc(...);
$options = $ec2->create_dhcp_options(-domain_name=>'test.com',
                                     -domain_name_servers=>['204.16.255.55','216.239.34.10']);
$vpc->set_dhcp_options($options);

$success = $ec2->delete_dhcp_options($dhcp_id)

Delete the indicated DHCPOptions, returning true if successful. You may also use the named argument -dhcp_options_id..

@options = $ec2->describe_dhcp_options(@option_ids)

@options = $ec2->describe_dhcp_options(\%filters)

@options = $ec2->describe_dhcp_options(-dhcp_options_id=>$id, -filter => \%filters)

This method returns a list of VM::EC2::VPC::DhcpOptions objects, which describe a set of DHCP options that can be assigned to a VPC. Called with no arguments, it returns all DhcpOptions. Pass a list of option IDs or a filter hashref in order to restrict the search.

Optional arguments:

-dhcp_options_id     Scalar or arrayref of DhcpOption IDs.
-filter              Hashref of filters.

Available filters are described at http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/ApiReference-query-DescribeDhcpOptions.html.

$success = $ec2->associate_dhcp_options($vpc_id => $dhcp_id)

$success = $ec2->associate_dhcp_options(-vpc_id => $vpc_id,-dhcp_options_id => $dhcp_id)

Associate a VPC ID with a DHCP option set. Pass an ID of 'default' to restore the default DHCP options for the VPC.
