AWS Bastion Terraform module

Open Source Helpers

Terraform module which creates a secure SSH bastion on AWS.

Mainly inspired by Securely Connect to Linux Instances Running in a Private Amazon VPC

Features

This module will create an SSH bastion to securely connect in SSH to your private instances. Bastion Infrastrucutre All SSH commands are logged on an S3 bucket for security compliance, in the /logs path.

SSH users are managed by their public key, simply drop the SSH key of the user in the /public-keys path of the bucket. Keys should be named like 'username.pub', this will create the user 'username' on the bastion server. Username must contain alphanumeric characters only.

Then after you'll be able to connect to the server with :

ssh [-i path_to_the_private_key] username@bastion-dns-name

From this bastion server, you'll able to connect to all instances on the private subnet.

If there is a missing feature or a bug - open an issue.

Usage

module "bastion" {
  source = "Guimove/bastion/aws"
  bucket_name = "my_famous_bucket_name"
  region = "eu-west-1"
  vpc_id = "my_vpc_id"
  is_lb_private = "true|false"
  bastion_host_key_pair = "my_key_pair"
  create_dns_record = "true|false"
  hosted_zone_id = "my.hosted.zone.name."
  bastion_record_name = "bastion.my.hosted.zone.name."
  bastion_iam_policy_name = "myBastionHostPolicy"
  elb_subnets = [
    "subnet-id1a",
    "subnet-id1b"
  ]
  auto_scaling_group_subnets = [
    "subnet-id1a",
    "subnet-id1b"
  ]
  tags = {
    "name" = "my_bastion_name",
    "description" = "my_bastion_description"
  }
}

Known issues

Tags are not applied to the instances generated by the auto scaling group do to known terraform issue : hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws#290

Change of disk encryption isn't propagate immediately. Change have to trigger manually from AWS CLI: Auto Scaling Groups -> Instance refresh . Keep in mind all data from instance will be lost in case there are temporary or custom data.
