Description

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) now allows you to create your own Prefix Lists that can be easily audited and applied across all your accounts to have a consistent security posture and routing behavior. A Prefix List is a collection of CIDR blocks that can be used to configure VPC security groups and route tables and shared with other AWS accounts using Resource Access Manager (RAM).

New or Affected Resource(s)

• New resource proposal: aws_prefix_list
• Existing data source: aws_prefix_list

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_prefix_list" "company-cidrs" {
  name             = string    # Prefix list name
  max_entries      = number    # Maximum number od prefix list entries
  address_family   = string    # IPv4 or IPv6
  entries          = list      # Prefix list entries
  tags             = map       # Map of tags
}
