--- layout: "aws" page_title: "AWS: aws_route_table" sidebar_current: "docs-aws-resource-route-table|" description: |- Provides a resource to create a VPC routing table. --- # aws\_route\_table Provides a resource to create a VPC routing table. ~> **NOTE on Route Tables and Routes:** Terraform currently provides both a standalone [Route resource](route.html) and a Route Table resource with routes defined in-line. At this time you cannot use a Route Table with in-line routes in conjunction with any Route resources. Doing so will cause a conflict of rule settings and will overwrite rules. ## Example usage with tags: ``` resource "aws_route_table" "r" { vpc_id = "${aws_vpc.default.id}" route { cidr_block = "10.0.1.0/24" gateway_id = "${aws_internet_gateway.main.id}" } tags { Name = "main" } } ``` ## Argument Reference The following arguments are supported: * `vpc_id` - (Required) The ID of the routing table. * `route` - (Optional) A list of route objects. Their keys are documented below. * `tags` - (Optional) A mapping of tags to assign to the resource. * `propagating_vgws` - (Optional) A list of virtual gateways for propagation. Each route supports the following: * `cidr_block` - (Required) The CIDR block of the route. * `gateway_id` - (Optional) The Internet Gateway ID. * `instance_id` - (Optional) The EC2 instance ID. * `vpc_peering_connection_id` - (Optional) The VPC Peering ID. * `network_interface_id` - (Optional) The ID of the elastic network interface (eni) to use. Each route must contain either a `gateway_id`, an `instance_id` or a `vpc_peering_connection_id` or a `network_interface_id`. Note that the default route, mapping the VPC's CIDR block to "local", is created implicitly and cannot be specified. ## Attributes Reference The following attributes are exported: ~> **NOTE:** Only the target that is entered is exported as a readable attribute once the route resource is created. * `id` - The ID of the routing table
