azurerm_virtual_network_peering

Manages a virtual network peering which allows resources to access other resources in the linked virtual network.

Example Usage

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "test" {
  name     = "peeredvnets-rg"
  location = "West US"
}

resource "azurerm_virtual_network" "test1" {
  name                = "peternetwork1"
  resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
  address_space       = ["10.0.1.0/24"]
  location            = "West US"
}

resource "azurerm_virtual_network" "test2" {
  name                = "peternetwork2"
  resource_group_name = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
  address_space       = ["10.0.2.0/24"]
  location            = "West US"
}

resource "azurerm_virtual_network_peering" "test1" {
  name                      = "peer1to2"
  resource_group_name       = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
  virtual_network_name      = "${azurerm_virtual_network.test1.name}"
  remote_virtual_network_id = "${azurerm_virtual_network.test2.id}"
}

resource "azurerm_virtual_network_peering" "test2" {
  name                      = "peer2to1"
  resource_group_name       = "${azurerm_resource_group.test.name}"
  virtual_network_name      = "${azurerm_virtual_network.test2.name}"
  remote_virtual_network_id = "${azurerm_virtual_network.test1.id}"
}

Example Usage (Global virtual network peering)

variable "location" {
  default = [
    "uksouth",
    "southeastasia",
  ]
}

variable "vnet_address_space" {
  default = [
    "10.0.0.0/16",
    "10.1.0.0/16",
  ]
}

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "vnet" {
  count    = "${length(var.location)}"
  name     = "rg-global-vnet-peering-${count.index}"
  location = "${element(var.location, count.index)}"
}

resource "azurerm_virtual_network" "vnet" {
  count               = "${length(var.location)}"
  name                = "vnet-${count.index}"
  resource_group_name = "${element(azurerm_resource_group.vnet.*.name, count.index)}"
  address_space       = ["${element(var.vnet_address_space, count.index)}"]
  location            = "${element(azurerm_resource_group.vnet.*.location, count.index)}"
}

resource "azurerm_subnet" "nva" {
  count                = "${length(var.location)}"
  name                 = "nva"
  resource_group_name  = "${element(azurerm_resource_group.vnet.*.name, count.index)}"
  virtual_network_name = "${element(azurerm_virtual_network.vnet.*.name, count.index)}"
  address_prefix       = "${cidrsubnet("${element(azurerm_virtual_network.vnet.*.address_space[count.index], count.index)}", 13, 0)}" # /29
}

# enable global peering between the two virtual network 
resource "azurerm_virtual_network_peering" "peering" {
  count                        = "${length(var.location)}"
  name                         = "peering-to-${element(azurerm_virtual_network.vnet.*.name, 1 - count.index)}"
  resource_group_name          = "${element(azurerm_resource_group.vnet.*.name, count.index)}"
  virtual_network_name         = "${element(azurerm_virtual_network.vnet.*.name, count.index)}"
  remote_virtual_network_id    = "${element(azurerm_virtual_network.vnet.*.id, 1 - count.index)}"
  allow_virtual_network_access = true
  allow_forwarded_traffic      = true
  # `allow_gateway_transit` must be set to false for vnet Global Peering
  allow_gateway_transit        = false
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • name - (Required) The name of the virtual network peering. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • virtual_network_name - (Required) The name of the virtual network. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • remote_virtual_network_id - (Required) The full Azure resource ID of the remote virtual network. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • resource_group_name - (Required) The name of the resource group in which to create the virtual network. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

  • allow_virtual_network_access - (Optional) Controls if the VMs in the remote virtual network can access VMs in the local virtual network. Defaults to false.

  • allow_forwarded_traffic - (Optional) Controls if forwarded traffic from VMs in the remote virtual network is allowed. Defaults to false.

  • allow_gateway_transit - (Optional) Controls gatewayLinks can be used in the remote virtual network’s link to the local virtual network.

  • use_remote_gateways - (Optional) Controls if remote gateways can be used on the local virtual network. If the flag is set to true, and allow_gateway_transit on the remote peering is also true, virtual network will use gateways of remote virtual network for transit. Only one peering can have this flag set to true. This flag cannot be set if virtual network already has a gateway. Defaults to false.

Attributes Reference

The following attributes are exported:

  • id - The Virtual Network Peering resource ID.

Note

Virtual Network peerings cannot be created, updated or deleted concurrently.

Import

Virtual Network Peerings can be imported using the resource id, e.g.

terraform import azurerm_virtual_network_peering.testPeering /subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/mygroup1/providers/Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/myvnet1/virtualNetworkPeerings/myvnet1peering
