T-Pot Terraform

This Terraform configuration can be used to launch a virtual machine, bootstrap any dependencies and install T-Pot in a single step.
Configuration for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Open Telekom Cloud (OTC) is currently included. This can easily be extended to support other Terraform providers.

Cloud-init is used to bootstrap the instance and install T-Pot on startup.

    • TCP ports 64294, 64295 and 64297 open to a chosen administrative IP

Open Telekom Cloud (OTC)

Pre-Requisites

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

  • AWS Account
    • Existing VPC: VPC ID needs to be specified in aws/variables.tf
    • Existing subnet: Subnet ID needs to be specified in aws/variables.tf
  • AWS Authentication credentials should be set using environment variables

Open Telekom Cloud (OTC)

Terraform Variables

Common configuration items

These variables exist in aws/variables.tf and otc/variables.tf respectively:
* * * This will be used to configure credentials for the T-Pot Kibana interface.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

In aws/variables.tf, change the following variables to correspond to your existing EC2 infrastructure:

  • admin_ip - source IP address(es) that you will use to administer the system. Connections to TCP ports 64294, 64295 and 64297 will be allowed from this IP only. Multiple IPs or CIDR blocks can be specified in the format: ["127.0.0.1/32", "192.168.0.0/24"]
  • ec2_vpc_id
  • ec2_subnet_id
  • ec2_region

Open Telekom Cloud (OTC)

Initialising

The terraform init command is used to initialize a working directory containing Terraform configuration files.

$ cd aws
$ terraform init

OR

$ cd otc
$ terraform init

Applying the Configuration

The terraform apply command is used to apply the changes required to reach the desired state of the configuration, or the pre-determined set of actions generated by a terraform plan execution plan.

$ terraform apply

This will create your infrastructure and start a Cloud Server. On startup, the Server gets bootstrapped with cloud-init and will install T-Pot. Once this is done, the server will reboot.

Connecting to the Instance

When the installation is completed, you can proceed with connecting/logging in to the T-Pot according to the documentation.
