AWS SDK for PHP 3.x

Service ID: shield

Version: 2016-06-02

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the AWS Shield (2016-06-02), and shows how to use the Aws\Shield\ShieldClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2016-06-02 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

AssociateDRTRole

$result = $client->associateDRTRole([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->associateDRTRoleAsync([/* ... */]);

Authorizes the Shield Response Team (SRT) using the specified role, to access your Amazon Web Services account to assist with DDoS attack mitigation during potential attacks. This enables the SRT to inspect your WAF configuration and create or update WAF rules and web ACLs.

You can associate only one RoleArn with your subscription. If you submit an AssociateDRTRole request for an account that already has an associated role, the new RoleArn will replace the existing RoleArn.

Prior to making the AssociateDRTRole request, you must attach the AWSShieldDRTAccessPolicy managed policy to the role that you'll specify in the request. You can access this policy in the IAM console at AWSShieldDRTAccessPolicy. For more information see Adding and removing IAM identity permissions. The role must also trust the service principal drt.shield.amazonaws.com. For more information, see IAM JSON policy elements: Principal.

The SRT will have access only to your WAF and Shield resources. By submitting this request, you authorize the SRT to inspect your WAF and Shield configuration and create and update WAF rules and web ACLs on your behalf. The SRT takes these actions only if explicitly authorized by you.

You must have the iam:PassRole permission to make an AssociateDRTRole request. For more information, see Granting a user permissions to pass a role to an Amazon Web Services service.

To use the services of the SRT and make an AssociateDRTRole request, you must be subscribed to the Business Support plan or the Enterprise Support plan.

DescribeAttackStatistics

$result = $client->describeAttackStatistics([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->describeAttackStatisticsAsync([/* ... */]);

Provides information about the number and type of attacks Shield has detected in the last year for all resources that belong to your account, regardless of whether you've defined Shield protections for them. This operation is available to Shield customers as well as to Shield Advanced customers.

The operation returns data for the time range of midnight UTC, one year ago, to midnight UTC, today. For example, if the current time is 2020-10-26 15:39:32 PDT, equal to 2020-10-26 22:39:32 UTC, then the time range for the attack data returned is from 2019-10-26 00:00:00 UTC to 2020-10-26 00:00:00 UTC.

The time range indicates the period covered by the attack statistics data items.

EnableApplicationLayerAutomaticResponse

$result = $client->enableApplicationLayerAutomaticResponse([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->enableApplicationLayerAutomaticResponseAsync([/* ... */]);

Enable the Shield Advanced automatic application layer DDoS mitigation for the protected resource.

This feature is available for Amazon CloudFront distributions and Application Load Balancers only.

This causes Shield Advanced to create, verify, and apply WAF rules for DDoS attacks that it detects for the resource. Shield Advanced applies the rules in a Shield rule group inside the web ACL that you've associated with the resource. For information about how automatic mitigation works and the requirements for using it, see Shield Advanced automatic application layer DDoS mitigation.

Don't use this action to make changes to automatic mitigation settings when it's already enabled for a resource. Instead, use UpdateApplicationLayerAutomaticResponse.

To use this feature, you must associate a web ACL with the protected resource. The web ACL must be created using the latest version of WAF (v2). You can associate the web ACL through the Shield Advanced console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/wafv2/shieldv2#/. For more information, see Getting Started with Shield Advanced. You can also associate the web ACL to the resource through the WAF console or the WAF API, but you must manage Shield Advanced automatic mitigation through Shield Advanced. For information about WAF, see WAF Developer Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->enableApplicationLayerAutomaticResponse([
    'Action' => [ // REQUIRED
        'Block' => [

You specify this as part of the configuration for the automatic application layer DDoS mitigation feature, when you enable or update automatic mitigation. Shield Advanced creates the WAF rules in a Shield Advanced-managed rule group, inside the web ACL that you have associated with the resource.

You can indicate the maximum number of objects that you want Shield Advanced to return for a single call with the MaxResults setting. Shield Advanced will not return more than MaxResults objects, but may return fewer, even if more objects are still available.

Whenever more objects remain that Shield Advanced has not yet returned to you, the response will include a NextToken value.
