To understand it, please read the article Learning hub-spoke with Packet Tracer and deploying it through Terraform on Azure.

Prerequisites

• Create a service principal on Azure.
• Configure the following environment variables in docker-compose.yml file:
  • ARM_CLIENT_ID
  • ARM_CLIENT_SECRET
  • ARM_TENANT_ID
  • ARM_SUBSCRIPTION_ID

Running the Terraform code

Run the following command to start the container:

docker compose run --rm docker-client-tf-did bash

To create the infrastructure, run the following command:

terraform init
terraform apply

Running static code analysers

tfsec .
terrascan scan --iac-type terraform

Authenticating on Azure CLI

Inside the container, run the following command:

az login \
--service-principal \
-t $ARM_TENANT_ID \
-u $ARM_CLIENT_ID \
-p $ARM_CLIENT_SECRET
