An Inspection Load Balancer That Does Not Drop a Zone With Its Appliances

A Gateway Load Balancer for firewall or IDS appliances, its endpoint service and endpoints. AWS turns cross-zone off, keeps flows on failed appliances and leaves deletion protection off by default; this module turns cross-zone and protection on and makes flow failover an explicit choice. It also says plainly that nothing is inspected until route tables point at the endpoints.

This is the operations reference: version drift, dependants and neighbours. For what the module provisions, its inputs and outputs, and how to buy it, see the catalogue entry.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.
