 ### Toggling IMDSv1
 
 You can configure [EC2 Instance Metadata Service](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-instance-metadata.html) options to either
-allow both IMDSv1 and IMDSv2 or enforce IMDSv2 when interacting with the IMDS. To do this, you can use the `AutoScalingGroupImdsAspect`.
+allow both IMDSv1 and IMDSv2 or enforce IMDSv2 when interacting with the IMDS.
 
-The following example demonstrates how to use the `AutoScalingGroupImdsAspect` to disable IMDSv1 (thus enforcing IMDSv2) for all AutoScalingGroups in a stack:
+To do this for a single `AutoScalingGroup`, you can use set the `disableImdsv1` property.
+The example below demonstrates IMDSv1 being disabled on a single `AutoScalingGroup`:
+
+```ts
+new autoscaling.AutoScalingGroup(stack, 'ASG', {
+  disableImdsv1: true,
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+You can also use `AutoScalingGroupImdsAspect` to apply the operation to multiple AutoScalingGroups.
+The example below demonstrates the `AutoScalingGroupImdsAspect` being used to disable IMDSv1 for all AutoScalingGroups in a stack:
 
 ```ts
 const aspect = new autoscaling.AutoScalingGroupImdsAspect({
