To create an accelerator

The following create-accelerator example creates an accelerator with two tags with two BYOIP static IP addresses. You must specify the US-West-2 (Oregon) Region to create or update an accelerator.

aws globalaccelerator create-accelerator --name ExampleAccelerator --tags Key="Name",Value="Example Name" Key="Project",Value="Example Project" --ip-addresses 192.0.2.250 198.51.100.52

Identify

--nameThe name of the accelerator.

--tagsCreate tags for an accelerator.

--ip-addressesOptionally, if you've added your own IP address pool to Global Accelerator (BYOIP), you can choose an IPv4 address from your own pool to use for the accelerator's static IPv4 address when you create an accelerator.
