aws_eip

Provides an Elastic IP resource.

Example Usage

Single EIP associated with an instance:

resource "aws_eip" "lb" {
  instance = "${aws_instance.web.id}"
  vpc      = true
}

Multiple EIPs associated with a single network interface:

resource "aws_network_interface" "multi-ip" {
  subnet_id   = "${aws_subnet.main.id}"
  private_ips = ["10.0.0.10", "10.0.0.11"]
}

resource "aws_eip" "one" {
  vpc                       = true
  network_interface         = "${aws_network_interface.multi-ip.id}"
  associate_with_private_ip = "10.0.0.10"
}

resource "aws_eip" "two" {
  vpc                       = true
  network_interface         = "${aws_network_interface.multi-ip.id}"
  associate_with_private_ip = "10.0.0.11"
}

Attaching an EIP to an Instance with a pre-assigned private ip (VPC Only):

resource "aws_vpc" "default" {
  cidr_block           = "10.0.0.0/16"
  enable_dns_hostnames = true
}

resource "aws_internet_gateway" "gw" {
  vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.default.id}"
}

resource "aws_subnet" "tf_test_subnet" {
  vpc_id                  = "${aws_vpc.default.id}"
  cidr_block              = "10.0.0.0/24"
  map_public_ip_on_launch = true

  depends_on = ["aws_internet_gateway.gw"]
}

resource "aws_instance" "foo" {
  # us-west-2
  ami           = "ami-5189a661"
  instance_type = "t2.micro"

  private_ip = "10.0.0.12"
  subnet_id  = "${aws_subnet.tf_test_subnet.id}"
}

resource "aws_eip" "bar" {
  vpc = true

  instance                  = "${aws_instance.foo.id}"
  associate_with_private_ip = "10.0.0.12"
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• vpc - (Optional) Boolean if the EIP is in a VPC or not.
• instance - (Optional) EC2 instance ID.
• network_interface - (Optional) Network interface ID to associate with.
• associate_with_private_ip - (Optional) A user specified primary or secondary private IP address to associate with the Elastic IP address. If no private IP address is specified, the Elastic IP address is associated with the primary private IP address.

~> NOTE: You can specify either the instance ID or the network_interface ID, but not both. Including both will not return an error from the AWS API, but will have undefined behavior. See the relevant AssociateAddress API Call for more information.

Attributes Reference

The following attributes are exported:

• id - Contains the EIP allocation ID.
• private_ip - Contains the private IP address (if in VPC).
• associate_with_private_ip - Contains the user specified private IP address (if in VPC).
• public_ip - Contains the public IP address.
• instance - Contains the ID of the attached instance.
• network_interface - Contains the ID of the attached network interface.

Import

EIPs in a VPC can be imported using their Allocation ID, e.g.

$ terraform import aws_eip.bar eipalloc-00a10e96

EIPs in EC2 Classic can be imported using their Public IP, e.g.

$ terraform import aws_eip.bar 52.0.0.0
