A Local Peering Gateway Pair that Is Connected and Routed
A local peering gateway with no peer stays NEW forever, and a PEERED pair with no route rule sending the other CIDR to the gateway passes nothing while reading as connected. Both gateways created and connected from one call, a route table with the rule to the peer created on each side for the subnets that should reach across, overlap refused, and an output that says it is not transitive.

Documentation
oci-local-peering
A local peering gateway pair between two VCNs in one region, connected,
with the route tables that make it carry traffic. Works with Terraform
and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), oci provider >= 8.0, < 9.0.
A local peering gateway with no peer is a gateway to nowhere. Both gateways are created and connected here.
A peered gateway with no route rule passes nothing. A route table with
the rule to the peer is created on each side when named; attach them to the
subnets that should reach across. Managing routes elsewhere needs
accept_routes_elsewhere.
The CIDRs must not overlap, and the peering is not transitive; for hub-and-spoke reachability the DRG is the product.
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.

oci-remote-peering
A remote peering connection is half a link until the requestor connects to the acceptor, and a PEERED connection with no DRG route import and no VCN route rule passes nothing while reading as connected. Acceptor and requestor halves from one module, the peering status exported, and an output that lists the routes and security rules that live outside it and are the usual reason no packets cross.
oci-fastconnect
One virtual circuit is one cable that goes down for maintenance, and the SLA assumes two; BFD is off by default, leaving a failed link to BGP hold timers for up to ninety seconds; and a circuit without a gateway is PROVISIONED and reaches no VCN. BFD on, the DRG required, a redundant partner circuit declared or the single circuit accepted by name, and the redundancy metadata exported.
oci-site-to-site-vpn
Every OCI IPSec tunnel is created with IKE version 1 unless told otherwise, and negotiates from a compatibility list that still accepts SHA-1, AES-128 and DH group 2 - so the weakest option a peer proposes is what it gets, and the tunnel shows UP. IKEv2 on both tunnels, explicit proposals for both phases with the weak ones refused by validation, BGP routing, and one configured tunnel only by name.
oci-drg-hub
Dynamic Routing Gateway with VCN attachments, custom DRG route tables, remote peering and IPSec/FastConnect attach points.
oci-vcn
Production VCN with public/private subnets, internet/NAT/service gateways, route tables, NSGs and IPv6 - the module every OCI tenancy starts with.
