name : associate-virtual-interface.rst **To associate a virtual interface with a connection** The following example associates the specified virtual interface with the specified LAG. Alternatively, to associate the virtual interface with a connection, specify the ID of an AWS Direct Connect connection for ``--connection-id``; for example, ``dxcon-ffnikghc``.
