Elastic IP Example

The eip example launches a web server, installs nginx. It also creates security group.

To run, configure your AWS provider as described in https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/aws/index.html

Running the example

run terraform apply -var 'key_name={your_key_name}'

Alternatively to using -var with each command, the terraform.template.tfvars file can be copied to terraform.tfvars and updated.

Give couple of mins for userdata to install nginx, and then type the Elastic IP from outputs in your browser and see the nginx welcome page
