**To update a virtual router**

The following ``update-virtual-router`` example uses a JSON input file to update a virtual router listener port. ::

    aws appmesh update-virtual-router \
        --cli-input-json file://update-virtual-router.json

Contents of ``update-virtual-router.json``::

    {
        "meshName": "app1",
        "spec": {
            "listeners": [
                {
                    "portMapping": {
                        "port": 8080,
                        "protocol": "http"
                    }
                }
            ]
        },
        "virtualRouterName": "vrServiceB"
    }

Output::

    {
        "virtualRouter": {
