Terraform module for creating an AWS Security Group

terraform_aws_security_group

Module terraform_aws_security_group is a Terraform module to create AWS security groups. However, it also helps manage ICMP rules in the sense that will create, if desired, a policy that denies all ICMP except for ICMP type 3, which helps manage path MTU discovery. It also will tag your security group for you, if desired.

Usage Example:

module "security_group" {
  source       = "github.com/paybyphone/terraform_aws_security_group?ref=VERSION"
  vpc_id       = "${var.vpc_id}"
  project_path = "your/project"
}
