Expected Behaviour

Creating a bastion host without ip_configuration block will succeed as implied by the docs saying ip_configuration block is Optional.

(this is what current docs suggest)

Actual Behaviour

According to docs here the ip_configuration block is Optional this falsely implies that you can create a bastion host without that variable which is definitely not true as you can see the attempt above which fails.

Therefore, I suggest we update the docs to make ip_configuration block (Required)

Steps to Reproduce

terraform apply -auto-approve
