AWS eks documentation change

Service: eks · 2026-01-25 · Documentation low

File: eks/latest/userguide/getting-started-console.md

Summary

Updated AWS CLI commands with concrete region/name values and corrected IAM policy ARN formats.

Security assessment

Replaced placeholder values like '<replaceable>region-code</replaceable>' with 'region-code' and fixed ARN syntax in policy attachment commands. No security-related changes; purely documentation improvements for accuracy.
