  • association.subnet-id - The ID of the subnet involved in the association.
  • default - Indicates whether the ACL is the default network ACL for the VPC.
  • entry.cidr - The IPv4 CIDR range specified in the entry.
  • entry.icmp.code - The ICMP code specified in the entry, if any.
  • entry.icmp.type - The ICMP type specified in the entry, if any.
  • entry.ipv6-cidr - The IPv6 CIDR range specified in the entry.
  • entry.port-range.from - The start of the port range specified in the entry.
