Documentation
aws-client-vpn
Client VPN endpoint with certificate or SAML authentication, split tunnelling,
per-group authorization rules, extra routes and connection logging. Works with
Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), AWS provider >= 6.0, < 7.0.
Defaults worth knowing:
- Split tunnelling is on. With it off, every packet from every connected laptop - video calls, OS updates - crosses the endpoint and is billed per GB. Full tunnelling is a defensible security choice and should be a deliberate one, not something found on an invoice
- There is no allow-all shortcut. An endpoint with no authorization rule
reaches nothing: confusing, and safe. The dangerous shape is
0.0.0.0/0granted to every group, and this module makes you write that out per target network - Authentication is required at plan time: an endpoint with neither a client certificate chain nor a SAML provider cannot authenticate anybody, so the variable validation refuses it
- Sessions expire after 8 hours by default, forcing reauthentication
- Connection logging is prominent because without it nobody can answer who was connected and when
Verification
Static validation runs tofu fmt, init, validate, tflint and checkov.
This module has not yet had a live test, so it is published as statically
validated with its live test pending and does not carry the live-tested mark.

Related modules
aws-cloud-map
Private DNS, public DNS or API-only namespaces and the services registered in them. Documents the health-check trap: a private namespace gets a custom check that something else must update, and one nobody updates reports healthy forever.
aws-cloud-wan
A global network whose segments, routing and attachment placement live in one policy document rather than per-region route tables. The policy VERSION is executed as a second step, so a change cannot report success while the network still runs the previous one.
aws-vpc
Battle-tested multi-AZ VPC with public/private/database subnets, NAT, endpoints, and flow logs.
aws-site-to-site-vpn
Customer gateway, IPsec connection and routes, attached to a VPN gateway or a Transit Gateway. IKEv2 only, DH group 14 and above, AES-256 and SHA-2 - the API still permits DH 2, AES-128 and SHA-1.
aws-transit-gateway
Hub-and-spoke Transit Gateway with its own route tables, VPC attachments, static and blackhole routes, and RAM sharing. Default route table association and propagation are off, so an attachment joins a routing domain because you said so rather than by default.
aws-vpc-endpoints
Free gateway endpoints for S3 and DynamoDB, interface endpoints for everything else, and a security group that opens 443 to the VPC rather than the world. Interface endpoints are listed explicitly because each bills per hour per availability zone.
