  Table 3 UpdateVpnConnectionRequestBodyContent

  Parameter	Type	Mandatory	Description
  name	String	No	Specifies the status of a VPN connection. The value is a string of 1 to 64 characters, which can contain digits, letters, underscores (_), hyphens (-), and periods (.).
  cgw_id	String	No	Specifies a customer gateway ID. The value is a UUID containing 36 characters.
  peer_subnets	Array of String	No	Specifies a customer subnet. Constraints: This parameter is not required when the association mode of the VPN gateway is set to er and style is set to policy or bgp. This parameter is mandatory in other scenarios. Reserved VPC CIDR blocks such as 100.64.0.0/10 and 214.0.0.0/8 cannot be used as customer subnets. A maximum of 50 customer subnets can be configured for each VPN connection.
  tunnel_local_address	String	No	Specifies the tunnel interface address configured on the VPN gateway in route-based mode, for example, 169.254.76.1/30. Constraints: The first 16 bits must be 169.254, and the value cannot be 169.254.195.xxx. The mask length must be 30, and the address must be in the same CIDR block as the value of tunnel_peer_address. The address needs to be a host address in a CIDR block.
  tunnel_peer_address	String	No	Specifies the tunnel interface address configured on the customer gateway device in route-based mode, for example, 169.254.76.1/30. Constraints: The first 16 bits must be 169.254, and the value cannot be 169.254.195.xxx. The mask length must be 30, and the address must be in the same CIDR block as the value of tunnel_local_address. The address needs to be a host address in a CIDR block.
  psk	String	No	Specifies a pre-shared key. When the IKE version is v2 and only this parameter is modified, the modification does not take effect. The value is a string of 8 to 128 characters, which must contain at least three types of the following: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters (~!@#$%^()-_+={ },./:;).
  policy_rules	Array of PolicyRule objects	No	Specifies policy rules. A maximum of five policy rules can be specified. Set this parameter only when style is set to policy. You can obtain the style value of a VPN connection by querying the VPN connection.

  Table 4 PolicyRule

  Parameter	Type	Mandatory	Description
  rule_index	Integer	No	Specifies a rule ID, which is used to identify the sequence in which the rule is configured. You are advised not to set this parameter. The value ranges from 0 to 50. The value of rule_index in each policy rule must be unique. The value of rule_index in ResponseVpnConnection may be different from the value of this parameter. This is because if multiple destination CIDR blocks are specified, the VPN service generates a rule for each destination CIDR block.
  source	String	No	Specifies a source CIDR block. The value of source in each policy rule must be unique.
  destination	Array of String	No	Specifies a destination CIDR block. For example, a destination CIDR block can be 192.168.52.0/24. A maximum of 50 destination CIDR blocks can be configured in each policy rule.
