How to create VPC in AWS from Ansible controller node

Question

Hi Guys,

I am able to launch an EC2 instance in AWS from Ansible-Playbook. But I want to create one VPC first and then I want to launch one instance inside this VPC. Can anyone tell me how can I do that?

Hi@akhtar,

You can find one module named ec2_vpc in Ansible. This module is used to create a VPC on AWS. I have attached one playbook below for your reference.

    - ec2_vpc:
        state: present
        cidr_block: 172.23.0.0/16
        resource_tags: { "Environment":"Development" }
        region: us-west-2
