Once enabled, the API will return a response indicating the status of the VPG:

{
  "operatorId": "OP0012345678",
  "vpgId": "abcdef00-0000-0000-0000-000012345678",
  "type": 12,
  "status": "running",
  "useInternetGateway": true,
  "tags": {
    "name": "my-vpg"
  },
  "createdTime": 1467007824685,
  "lastModifiedTime": 1467012076035,
  "primaryServiceName": "Gate",

}

You can disable gate similarly by using the closeGate API.
