Terraform Google Cloud Platform - VPN Module

This modules makes it easy to set up VPN connectivity in GCP by defining your gateways and tunnels in a concise syntax.

It supports creating:

• A Google VPN Gateway
• Tunnels connecting the gateway to defined peers
• Static routes for subnets across tunnel -or- dynamic routes with cloud router

If you want to deploy HA VPN please refer to the VPN HA Submodule

Compatibility

This module is meant for use with Terraform 0.12. If you haven't upgraded and need a Terraform 0.11.x-compatible version of this module, the last released version intended for Terraform 0.11.x is 0.3.0.

Upgrading

The following guides are available to assist with upgrades:

• 1.X -> 2.0

Usage

You can go to the examples folder, however the usage of the module could be like this in your own main.tf file:

resource "google_compute_router" "cr-uscentral1-to-prod-vpc" {
  name    = "cr-uscentral1-to-prod-vpc-tunnels"
  region  = "us-central1"
  network = "default"
  project = var.project_id

  bgp {
    asn = "64519"
  }
}

module "vpn-prod-internal" {
  source  = "terraform-google-modules/vpn/google"
  version = "~> 1.2.0"

  project_id         = var.project_id
  network            = "default"
  region             = "us-west1"
  gateway_name       = "vpn-prod-internal"
  tunnel_name_prefix = "vpn-tn-prod-internal"
  shared_secret      = "secrets"
  tunnel_count       = 1
  peer_ips           = ["1.1.1.1", "2.2.2.2"]

  route_priority = 1000
  remote_subnet  = ["10.17.0.0/22", "10.16.80.0/24"]
}

module "vpn-manage-internal" {
  source  = "terraform-google-modules/vpn/google"
  version = "~> 1.2.0"
  project_id         = var.project_id
  network            = "default"
  region             = "us-west1"
  gateway_name       = "vpn-manage-internal"
  tunnel_name_prefix = "vpn-tn-manage-internal"
  shared_secret      = "secrets"
  tunnel_count       = 1
  peer_ips           = ["1.1.1.1", "2.2.2.2"]

  route_priority = 1000
  remote_subnet  = ["10.17.32.0/20", "10.17.16.0/20"]
}

Then perform the following commands on the root folder:

• terraform init to get the plugins
• terraform plan to see the infrastructure plan
• terraform apply to apply the infrastructure build
• terraform destroy to destroy the built infrastructure

Static vs Dynamic

Depending on if the VPN tunnel(s) will be using dynamic or static routing, different variables will need to be used in the module. References the variable descriptions below to determine the right configuration.
