Terraform VPC Module

This Terraform module creates a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) in AWS, along with public and private subnets, an internet gateway, a NAT gateway, and appropriate route tables. It is designed to provide a basic networking setup that allows public instances to access the internet and private instances to communicate outbound via a NAT Gateway.

Features

  • Creates a VPC with customizable CIDR blocks.

  • Configures public and private subnets.

  • Creates an Internet Gateway (IGW) for public subnets.

  • Deploys a NAT Gateway to enable outbound internet access for private subnets.

  • Configures route tables for public and private subnets.

  • Supports DNS resolution inside the VPC.

Usage

To use this module in your Terraform configuration, include the following:

module "my_vpc" {
  source = "git::ssh://git@github.com/VasudhaJha/terraform-aws-vpc.git"
  vpc_cidr           = "10.0.0.0/16"
  vpc_name           = "MyAppVPC"
  public_subnet_cidr  = "10.0.1.0/24"
  public_subnet_az    = "us-east-1a"
  private_subnet_cidr = "10.0.2.0/24"
  private_subnet_az   = "us-east-1b"
}

Inputs

Name Description Type Default Required
vpc_cidr CIDR block for the VPC string n/a ✅
vpc_name Name of the VPC string MyVPC ❌
public_subnet_cidr CIDR block for the public subnet string n/a ✅
public_subnet_az Availability Zone for the public subnet string n/a ✅
public_subnet_name Name of the public subnet string Public Subnet ❌
private_subnet_cidr CIDR block for the private subnet string n/a ✅
private_subnet_az Availability Zone for the private subnet string n/a ✅
private_subnet_name Name of the private subnet string Private Subnet ❌
igw_name Name of the internet gateway string Internet Gateway ❌
nat_gw_name Name of the NAT gateway string NAT Gateway ❌
public_rt_name Name of the public route table string Public Route Table ❌
private_rt_name Name of the private route table string Private Route Table ❌

Outputs

Name Description
vpc_id The ID of the created VPC
public_subnet_id The ID of the public subnet
private_subnet_id The ID of the private subnet
internet_gateway_id The ID of the Internet Gateway
nat_gateway_public_ip The public IP of the NAT Gateway

Example Output

After running terraform apply, you will see an output similar to:

Outputs:

vpc_id = "vpc-0abcd1234ef567890"
public_subnet_id = "subnet-0abcd1234ef567890"
private_subnet_id = "subnet-0abcd1234ef567890"
internet_gateway_id = "igw-0abcd1234ef567890"
nat_gateway_public_ip = "203.0.113.25"

Deployment Instructions

  1. Initialize Terraform:
terraform init
  1. Apply the configuration:
terraform apply
  1. Destroy when no longer needed:
terraform destroy

Best Practices

  • Use non-overlapping CIDR blocks for each subnet to avoid conflicts.
