Terraform module to create Networking resources for workload deployment on AWS Cloud.

Usage Example

module "key_pair_vpn" {
  source             = "squareops/keypair/aws"
  environment        = "production"
  key_name           = format("%s-%s-vpn", "production", "skaf")
  ssm_parameter_path = format("%s-%s-vpn", "production", "skaf")
}


module "vpc" {
  source = "squareops/vpc/aws"

  environment                                     = "production"

  flow_log_cloudwatch_log_group_retention_in_days = 90

}

Important Note

To prevent destruction interruptions, any resources that have been created outside of Terraform and attached to the resources provisioned by Terraform must be deleted before the module is destroyed.

The private key generated by Keypair module will be stored in AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store. For more details refer this

Network Scenarios

Users need to declare vpc_cidr and subnets are calculated with the help of in-built functions.

This module supports three scenarios to create Network resource on AWS. Each will be explained in brief in the corresponding sections.

• simple-vpc (default behavior): To create a VPC with public subnets and IGW.

  • vpc_cidr = ""
  • enable_public_subnet = true

• vpc-with-private-sub: To create a VPC with public subnets, private subnets, IGW gateway and NAT gateway.

  • vpc_cidr = ""
  • enable_public_subnet = true
  • enable_private_subnet = true

• complete-vpc-with-vpn: To create a VPC with public, private, database and intra subnets along with an IGW and NAT gateway. Jump server/Bastion Host is also configured.

  • vpc_cidr = ""
  • enable_public_subnet = true
  • enable_private_subnet = true
  • enable_database_subnet = true
  • enable_intra_subnet = true
  • one_nat_gateway_per_az = true
  • vpn_server_enabled = true
  • vpn_server_instance_type = "t3a.small"
  • vpn_key_pair = ""
  • enable_flow_log = true
  • flow_log_max_aggregation_interval = 60
  • flow_log_cloudwatch_log_group_retention_in_days = 90

• vpc-peering: VPC peering support is available using submodule vpc_peering. Refer Peering Docs for more information

IAM Permissions

The required IAM permissions to create resources from this module can be found here

VPN setup-

To configure Pritunl VPN:

  1. Access the Pritunl UI over HTTPS using the public IP of EC2 instance in browser
  2. Retrieve the initial key, user and password for setting up Pritunl from AWS Secrets Manager and log in to Pritunl.
  3. Create a DNS record mapping to the EC2 instance's public IP
  4. After login, in the Initial setup window, add the record created in the 'Lets Encrypt Domain' field.
  5. Pritunl will automatically configure a signed SSL certificate from Lets Encrypt.
  6. Add organization and user to pritunl.
  7. Add server and set port as 10150 which is already allowed from security group while creating instance for VPN server.
  8. Attach organization to the server and Start the server.
  9. Copy or download user profile link or file.
 10. Import the profile in Pritunl client.

NOTE: Port 80 should be open publicly in the vpn security group to verify and renewing the domain certificate.

CIS COMPLIANCE

Security scanning is graciously provided by Prowler. Prowler is the leading fully hosted, cloud-native solution providing continuous cluster security and compliance.

Benchmark	Description
Ensure no security groups allow ingress from 0.0.0.0/0 or ::/0 to port 3389	No Security Groups open to 0.0.0.0/0
Ensure the default security group of every VPC restricts all traffic	No Default Security Groups open to 0.0.0.0/0
