$gateway = $ec2->create_internet_gateway()

This method creates a new Internet gateway. It takes no arguments and returns a VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway object. Gateways are initially independent of any VPC, but later can be attached to one or more VPCs using attach_internet_gateway().

$success = $ec2->delete_internet_gateway($internet_gateway_id)

$success = $ec2->delete_internet_gateway(-internet_gateway_id=>$id)

This method deletes the indicated internet gateway. It may be called with a single argument corresponding to the route table's ID, or using the named form with argument -internet_gateway_id.

@gateways = $ec2->describe_internet_gateways(@gateway_ids)

@gateways = $ec2->describe_internet_gateways(\%filters)

@gateways = $ec2->describe_internet_gateways(-internet_gateway_id=>\@ids, -filter =>\$filters)

This method describes all or some of the internet gateways available to you. You may use the filter to restrict the search to a particular type of internet gateway using one or more of the filters described at http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/ApiReference-query-DescribeInternetGateways.html.

Some of the commonly used filters are:

 attachment.vpc-id       ID of one of the VPCs the gateway is attached to
 attachment.state        State of the gateway, always "available"
 tag:<key>               Value of a tag

On success this method returns a list of VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway objects.

$boolean = $ec2->attach_internet_gateway($internet_gateway_id,$vpc_id)

$boolean = $ec2->attach_internet_gateway(-internet_gateway_id => $id, -vpc_id => $id)

This method attaches an internet gateway to a VPC. You can use internet gateway and VPC IDs, or their corresponding VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway and VM::EC2::VPC objects.

Required arguments:

 -internet_gateway_id ID of the network interface to attach.
 -vpc_id              ID of the instance to attach the interface to.

On success, this method a true value.

Note that it may be more convenient to attach and detach gateways via methods in the VM::EC2::VPC and VM::EC2::VPC::Gateway objects.

 $vpc->attach_internet_gateway($gateway);
 $gateway->attach($vpc);

$boolean = $ec2->detach_internet_gateway($internet_gateway_id,$vpc_id)

$boolean = $ec2->detach_internet_gateway(-internet_gateway_id => $id, -vpc_id => $id)

This method detaches an internet gateway to a VPC. You can use internet gateway and VPC IDs, or their corresponding VM::EC2::VPC::InternetGateway and VM::EC2::VPC objects.

Required arguments:

 -internet_gateway_id ID of the network interface to detach.
 -vpc_id              ID of the VPC to detach the gateway from.

On success, this method a true value.

Note that it may be more convenient to detach and detach gateways via methods in the VM::EC2::VPC and VM::EC2::VPC::Gateway objects.

 $vpc->detach_internet_gateway($gateway);
 $gateway->detach($vpc);
