Azure Traffic Manager with virtual machines
This Terraform template was based on this Azure Quickstart Template. Changes to the ARM template that may have occurred since the creation of this example may not be reflected here.
This template shows how to create an Azure Traffic Manager profile to load-balance across a couple of Azure virtual machines. Each endpoint has an equal weight but different weights can be specified to distribute load non-uniformly.
See also:
- Traffic Manager routing methods for details of the different routing methods available.
- Create or update a Traffic Manager profile for details of the JSON elements relating to a Traffic Manager profile.
main.tf
The main.tf file contains the actual resources that will be deployed. It also contains the Azure Resource Group definition and any defined variables.
outputs.tf
This data is outputted when terraform apply is called, and can be queried using the terraform output command.
provider.tf
Azure requires that an application is added to Azure Active Directory to generate the client_id, client_secret, and tenant_id needed by Terraform (subscription_id can be recovered from your Azure account details). Please go here for full instructions on how to create this to populate your provider.tf file.
terraform.tfvars
If a terraform.tfvars file is present in the current directory, Terraform automatically loads it to populate variables. We don't recommend saving usernames and password to version control, but you can create a local secret variables file and use -var-file to load it.
If you are committing this template to source control, please insure that you add this file to your .gitignore file.
variables.tf
The variables.tf file contains all of the input parameters that the user can specify when deploying this Terraform template.
