Equinix Fabric L2 Connection To Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect Terraform module

terraform-equinix-fabric-connection-oci is a Terraform module that utilizes Terraform provider for Equinix and Terraform provider for OCI to set up an Equinix Fabric L2 connection to OCI Fast Connect.

As part of Platform Equinix, your infrastructure can connect with other parties, such as public cloud providers, network service providers, or your own colocation cages in Equinix by defining an Equinix Fabric - software-defined interconnection.

This module creates a Dynamic Routing Gateway (DRG) or uses an existing one, a private Virtual Circuit in OCI, and the l2 connection in Equinix Fabric using the Virtual Circuit OCID as authentication key. BGP in Equinix side can be optionally configured if Network Edge device is used. Optionally you can attach multiple VCNs to the DRG.

Usage

This project is experimental and supported by the user community. Equinix does not provide support for this project.

Install Terraform using the official guides at https://learn.hashicorp.com/tutorials/terraform/install-cli.

This project may be forked, cloned, or downloaded and modified as needed as the base in your integrations and deployments.

This project may also be used as a Terraform module.

To use this module in a new project, create a file such as:

# main.tf
provider "equinix" {}

provider "oci" {}

variable "tenancy_ocid" {}
variable "device_id" {}

module "equinix-fabric-connection-oci" {
  source  = "equinix-labs/fabric-connection-oci/equinix"

  # required variables
  fabric_notification_users = ["[email protected]"]
  oci_tenancy_id            = var.tenancy_ocid

  # optional variables
  network_edge_device_id     = var.device_id
  network_edge_configure_bgp = true

  fabric_destination_metro_code = "FR" //Frankfurt
  fabric_speed                  = 2 //Speed in Gbps
}

Run terraform init -upgrade and terraform apply.
