GitHub - jurgenweber/terraform-aws-ec2-client-vpn

The terraform-aws-ec2-client-vpn project provides for ec2 client vpn infrastructure. AWS Client VPN is a managed client-based VPN service based on OpenVPN that enables you to securely access your AWS resources and resources in your on-premises network. With Client VPN, you can access your resources from any location using any OpenVPN-based VPN client.

Tip

👽 Use Atmos with Terraform

Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.

Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform

Example of running atmos to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.

Usage

For a complete example, see examples/complete.

For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.

  retention_in_days       = var.retention_in_days
  associated_subnets      = module.subnets.private_subnet_ids
  authorization_rules     = var.authorization_rules

  additional_routes = [
    {
      destination_cidr_block = "0.0.0.0/0"
      description            = "Internet Route"
      target_vpc_subnet_id   = element(module.subnets.private_subnet_ids, 0)
    }
  ]
}

Important

In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.

additional_security_group_rules	A list of Security Group rule objects to add to the created security group, in addition to the ones this module normally creates. (To suppress the module's rules, set `create_security_group` to false and supply your own security group via `associated_security_group_ids`.)

descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the `descriptors` output map. Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form `{<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>}` (Type is `any` so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.) `format` is a Terraform format string to be passed to the `format()` function. `labels` is a list of labels, in order, to pass to `format()` function.

Does not affect values of tags passed in via the `tags` input. Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper` and `none` (no transformation). Set this to `title` and set `delimiter` to `""` to yield Pascal Case IDs. Default value: `lower`.	`string`	`null`	no
labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the `tags` output. Default is to include all labels. Tags with empty values will not be included in the `tags` output. Set to `[]` to suppress all generated tags. Notes: The value of the `name` tag, if included, will be the `id`, not the `name`.

Thus by default, if `var.name`=`example-self-signed-cert`, then the resulting secret paths for the self-signed certificate's PEM file and private key will be `/example-self-signed-cert.pem` and `/example-self-signed-cert.key`, respectively.
