    Resource Type definition for AWS::DirectConnect::Connection

    Create Connection Resource

    Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

    Constructor syntax

    new Connection(name: string, args: ConnectionArgs, opts?: CustomResourceOptions);
    @overload
    def Connection(resource_name: str,
                   args: ConnectionArgs,
                   opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None)
    
    @overload
    def Connection(resource_name: str,
                   opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None,
                   bandwidth: Optional[str] = None,
                   location: Optional[str] = None,
                   connection_name: Optional[str] = None,

                   request_mac_sec: Optional[bool] = None,
                   tags: Optional[Sequence[_root_inputs.TagArgs]] = None)
    func NewConnection(ctx *Context, name string, args ConnectionArgs, opts ...ResourceOption) (*Connection, error)
    public Connection(string name, ConnectionArgs args, CustomResourceOptions? opts = null)
    public Connection(String name, ConnectionArgs args)
    public Connection(String name, ConnectionArgs args, CustomResourceOptions options)
