Description

The Azure terraform provider does not support Azure Public IP Prefixes. Please support them. This would mean:

• I can create azure public ip prefixes
• I can create azurerm public ip's (standard) referencing the azure public ip prefix created before

This make on premise firewalling for larger clusters with a lot of NAT (e.g. Kubernetes/Openshift) easier.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• azurerm_public_ip_prefix
• azurerm_public_ip (modified, add support to create from azurerm_public_ip_prefix)

References

• See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/manage-public-ip-address-prefix

depends on #2433

seems like #2433 is merged.. any chance this can be re-entered into the 1.21 milestone :)

Currently we are using data sources for a public ip prefix we create manually in the portal

@pixelicous I have started to take a look at adding these resources today:-

azurerm_public_ip_prefix
azurerm_public_ip_prefix_association

had to update azurerm_public_ip rather than creating an association virtual resource as the public IP API will not allow updates to IP prefix

@steve-hawkins Hey! thanks for this! I understand what you mean, when creating ip address in the prefix you cannot choose which prefix it will be, very idiotic design decision imo, it also doesnt work very well in terraform, sometimes when generating it will skip a public ip that was created and deleted.

Again, thanks for your time, wish i knew GO or had time to learn/handle it myself..

This has been released in version 1.25.0 of the provider. Please see the Terraform documentation on provider versioning or reach out if you need any assistance upgrading. As an example:

provider "azurerm" {
	version = "~> 1.25.0"
}
# ... other configuration ...
