At this time it is required to write an explicit proxy configuration block A proxy configuration block is one that is either completely empty or that
even for default (un-aliased) provider configurations when they will be passed contains only the `alias` argument. It serves as a placeholder for
via an explicit `providers` block: provider configurations passed between modules. Although an empty proxy
configuration block is valid, it is not necessary: proxy configuration blocks
are needed only to establish which _alias_ provider configurations a child
module is expecting.
```hcl A proxy configuration block must not include the `version` argument. To specify
provider "aws" { version constraints for a particular child module without creating a local
} module configuration, use the [`required_providers`](/docs/configuration/terraform.html#specifying-required-provider-versions)
``` setting inside a `terraform` block.
If such a block is not present, the child module will behave as if it has no
configurations of this type at all, which may cause input prompts to supply
any required provider configuration arguments. This limitation will be
addressed in a future version of Terraform.
