**To create a connection group in CloudFront**
The following ``create-connection-group`` example creates an enabled connection group, specifies an Anycast static IP list, and disables IPv6. ::
aws cloudfront create-connection-group \
--name cg-with-anycast-ip-list \
--no-ipv6-enabled \
--enabled \
--anycast-ip-list-id aip_CCkW6gKrDiBD4n78123ABC \
--tags "Items=[{Key=abc,Value=123}]"
Output::
