File: directconnect/latest/UserGuide/direct-connect-transit-gateways.md

Summary

Updated capitalization of 'Transit Gateway' throughout the document for consistency with AWS naming conventions. Changed all instances of 'transit gateway' to 'Transit Gateway' in headings, body text, and link references.

Security assessment

The changes are purely cosmetic and grammatical, focusing on capitalization consistency. No security vulnerabilities, configurations, or features are mentioned or modified. The technical content about Transit Gateway associations remains unchanged.

-For a transit gateway association, you provision the allowed prefixes list on the Direct Connect gateway. The list is used to route traffic from on-premises to AWS into the transit gateway even if the VPCs attached to the transit gateway do not have assigned CIDRs. Prefixes in the Direct Connect gateway allowed prefix list originate on the Direct Connect gateway and are advertised to the on-premises network. For more information on how allowed prefixes interact with transit gateway and virtual private gateways, see [Allowed prefixes interactions](./allowed-to-prefixes.html).
