  | 
      
        
        Creates all-active gateways.
         | 
     
| dfs_id | 
        
        Specifies the ID of a DFS group. The value must be 1.
         | 
     |
| dfs_peer_ip | 
        
        Configure the IP address of an all-active gateway peer. The value is in dotted decimal notation.
         | 
     |
| dfs_peer_vpn | 
        
        Specifies the name of the VPN instance that is associated with all-active gateway peer. The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. The value  _public_ is reserved and cannot be used as the VPN instance name.

| dfs_source_vpn | 
        
        Specifies the name of a VPN instance bound to a DFS group. The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters without spaces. If the character string is quoted by double quotation marks, the character string can contain spaces. The value  _public_ is reserved and cannot be used as the VPN instance name.
        | 
     |
| dfs_udp_port | 
        
        Specifies the UDP port number of the DFS group. The value is an integer that ranges from 1025 to 65535.
         | 
     |
| state | 
       
  |

         | 
     
| vbdif_bind_vpn | 
        
        Specifies the name of the VPN instance that is associated with the interface. The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. The value  _public_ is reserved and cannot be used as the VPN instance name.
        | 
     |
| vbdif_mac | 
        
        Specifies a MAC address for a VBDIF interface. The value is in the format of H-H-H. Each H is a 4-digit hexadecimal number, such as  00e0 or fc01. If an H contains less than four digits, 0s are added ahead. For example, e0 is equal to 00e0. A MAC address cannot be all 0s or 1s or a multicast MAC address.
        | 
     |
| vbdif_name | 
        
        Full name of VBDIF interface, i.e. Vbdif100.
         | 
     |
| vpn_instance | 
        
        Specifies the name of a VPN instance. The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters, spaces not supported. When double quotation marks are used around the string, spaces are allowed in the string. The value  _public_ is reserved and cannot be used as the VPN instance name.
        | 
     |
| vpn_vni | 
        
        Specifies a VNI ID. Binds a VXLAN network identifier (VNI) to a virtual private network (VPN) instance. The value is an integer ranging from 1 to 16000000.
