Inputs

    
tags:
    aliases:

    - If the I(tags) parameter is not set then tags will not be modified.
    required: false
    type: dict

delay:
    default: 15
    description:
    - The time, in seconds, to wait before checking operation again.
    required: false
    type: int

    - The desired state of the VPN connection.
    required: false
    type: str

region:
    aliases:
    - aws_region
    - ec2_region
    description:
    - The AWS region to use.
    - For global services such as IAM, Route53 and CloudFront, I(region) is ignored.
    - The C(AWS_REGION) or C(EC2_REGION) environment variables may also be used.
    - See the Amazon AWS documentation for more information U(http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region).
    - The C(ec2_region) alias has been deprecated and will be removed in a release after

    type: str

routes:
    default: []
    description:
    - Routes to add to the connection.
    elements: str
    type: list

filters:
    default: {}
    description:
    - An alternative to using I(vpn_connection_id). If multiple matches are found, vpn_connection_id
      is required. If one of the following suboptions is a list of items to filter by,
      only one item needs to match to find the VPN that correlates. e.g. if the filter
      I(cidr) is C(['194.168.2.0/24', '192.168.2.0/24']) and the VPN route only has the
      destination cidr block of C(192.168.2.0/24) it will be found with this filter (assuming
      there are not multiple VPNs that are matched). Another example, if the filter I(vpn)
      is equal to C(['vpn-ccf7e7ad', 'vpn-cb0ae2a2']) and one of of the VPNs has the state
      deleted (exists but is unmodifiable) and the other exists and is not deleted, it
      will be found via this filter. See examples.
