I ended up NOT using the Scalr NAT instance because I though the HashiCorp
Terraform was powerful enough. To get things working I just used a pretty
simple config that makes user of the AWS NAT AMI.
resource "aws_instance" "nat" {
ami = "${var.aws_nat_ami}"
availability_zone = "eu-west-1a"
instance_type = "t2.medium"
key_name = "${var.aws_key_name}"
security_groups = ["${aws_security_group.nat.id}"]
subnet_id = "${aws_subnet.eu-west-1a-public.id}"
associate_public_ip_address = true
source_dest_check = false
tags {
Name = "eu-ire-eng-nat01"
user = "${var.aws_user_tags}"
}
}
There is also a section that builds the firewall rule, assigns and EIP,
builds the routes, etc.
