Modify VPC configurations using ModifyVpcAttribute - Virtual Private Cloud - Alibaba Cloud - Virtual Private Cloud

Modifies the configuration of a specified VPC.

Operation description

The ModifyVpcAttribute operation does not support concurrent modifications to the configuration of the same VPC.
The ModifyVpcAttribute operation can enable IPv6 for a VPC, but cannot modify the IPv6 CIDR block or IPv6 address type for a VPC that already has IPv6 enabled.

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.
API: The API that you can call to perform the action.
Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.
Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.
- For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.
- For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.
Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.
Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description	Example
VpcId	string	Yes	The ID of the VPC whose configuration you want to modify.	vpc-bp1qtbach57ywecf****
Description	string	No	The new description of the VPC. The description must be 1 to 256 characters in length and cannot start with `http://` or `https://`.	This is my VPC.
VpcName	string	No	The new name of the VPC. The name must be 1 to 128 characters in length and cannot start with `http://` or `https://`.	Vpc-1
CidrBlock	string	No	The new IPv4 CIDR block of the VPC. You can expand or shrink the CIDR block within the original IPv4 CIDR block of the VPC. The recommended subnet mask is 16 to 28 bits. If you shrink the IPv4 CIDR block of the VPC, the modification fails if any IP addresses already in use fall outside the target CIDR block. Note Modifying the IPv4 CIDR block of a VPC does not affect existing services.	192.168.0.0/24
RegionId	string	No	The region ID of the VPC. You can call the DescribeRegions operation to query the most recent region list.	cn-hangzhou
EnableIPv6	boolean	No	Specifies whether to enable IPv6. Valid values: false (default): Disabled. true: Enabled.	false
Ipv6CidrBlock	string	No	The IPv6 CIDR block of the VPC. When you enable IPv6 for a VPC, the system will assign an IPv6 CIDR block. To specify an IPv6 CIDR block, you need to first invoke the AllocateVpcIpv6Cidr operation to reserve a specific IPv6 CIDR block, and then pass it in. Note For a VPC that already has IPv6 enabled, you cannot modify the IPv6 CIDR block by passing in this parameter.	2408:XXXX:0:6a::/56
Ipv6Isp	string	No	The type of the IPv6 CIDR block of the VPC. Valid values: BGP (default): Alibaba Cloud BGP IPv6. ChinaMobile: China Mobile (single-ISP). ChinaUnicom: China Unicom (single-ISP). ChinaTelecom: China Telecom (single-ISP). Note If you are a user who has activated the single-ISP bandwidth whitelist, you can set this parameter to ChinaTelecom (China Telecom), ChinaUnicom (China Unicom), or ChinaMobile (China Mobile).	BGP
EnableDnsHostname	boolean	No	Specifies whether to enable the DNS hostname feature. Valid values: false (default): Disabled. true: Enabled.	false
