» oci_core_virtual_circuit

This resource provides the Virtual Circuit resource in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Core service.

Creates a new virtual circuit to use with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect. For more information, see FastConnect Overview.

For the purposes of access control, you must provide the OCID of the compartment where you want the virtual circuit to reside. If you're not sure which compartment to use, put the virtual circuit in the same compartment with the DRG it's using. For more information about compartments and access control, see Overview of the IAM Service. For information about OCIDs, see Resource Identifiers.

You may optionally specify a display name for the virtual circuit. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it. Avoid entering confidential information.

Important: When creating a virtual circuit, you specify a DRG for the traffic to flow through. Make sure you attach the DRG to your VCN and confirm the VCN's routing sends traffic to the DRG. Otherwise traffic will not flow. For more information, see Route Tables.

» Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • bandwidth_shape_name - (Optional) (Updatable) The provisioned data rate of the connection. To get a list of the available bandwidth levels (that is, shapes), see ListFastConnectProviderServiceVirtualCircuitBandwidthShapes. Example: 10 Gbps
  • compartment_id - (Required) The OCID of the compartment to contain the virtual circuit.
  • cross_connect_mappings - (Optional) (Updatable) Create a CrossConnectMapping for each cross-connect or cross-connect group this virtual circuit will run on.

    • bgp_md5auth_key - (Optional) (Updatable) The key for BGP MD5 authentication. Only applicable if your system requires MD5 authentication. If empty or not set (null), that means you don't use BGP MD5 authentication.
    • cross_connect_or_cross_connect_group_id - (Optional) (Updatable) The OCID of the cross-connect or cross-connect group for this mapping. Specified by the owner of the cross-connect or cross-connect group (the customer if the customer is colocated with Oracle, or the provider if the customer is connecting via provider).
    • customer_bgp_peering_ip - (Optional) (Updatable) The BGP IPv4 address for the router on the other end of the BGP session from Oracle. Specified by the owner of that router. If the session goes from Oracle to a customer, this is the BGP IPv4 address of the customer's edge router. If the session goes from Oracle to a provider, this is the BGP IPv4 address of the provider's edge router. Must use a /30 or /31 subnet mask.

      There's one exception: for a public virtual circuit, Oracle specifies the BGP IPv4 addresses.

      Example: 10.0.0.18/31

    • oracle_bgp_peering_ip - (Optional) (Updatable) The IPv4 address for Oracle's end of the BGP session. Must use a /30 or /31 subnet mask. If the session goes from Oracle to a customer's edge router, the customer specifies this information. If the session goes from Oracle to a provider's edge router, the provider specifies this.

      There's one exception: for a public virtual circuit, Oracle specifies the BGP IPv4 addresses.

      Example: 10.0.0.19/31

    • vlan - (Optional) (Updatable) The number of the specific VLAN (on the cross-connect or cross-connect group) that is assigned to this virtual circuit. Specified by the owner of the cross-connect or cross-connect group (the customer if the customer is colocated with Oracle, or the provider if the customer is connecting via provider). Example: 200

  • customer_bgp_asn - (Optional) (Updatable) Your BGP ASN (either public or private). Provide this value only if there's a BGP session that goes from your edge router to Oracle. Otherwise, leave this empty or null.

  • display_name - (Optional) (Updatable) A user-friendly name. Does not have to be unique, and it's changeable. Avoid entering confidential information.

  • gateway_id - (Optional) (Updatable) For private virtual circuits only. The OCID of the dynamic routing gateway (DRG) that this virtual circuit uses.

  • provider_service_id - (Optional) The OCID of the service offered by the provider (if you're connecting via a provider). To get a list of the available service offerings, see ListFastConnectProviderServices.

  • provider_service_key_name - (Optional) (Updatable) The service key name offered by the provider (if the customer is connecting via a provider).

  • public_prefixes - (Optional) For a public virtual circuit. The public IP prefixes (CIDRs) the customer wants to advertise across the connection.

    • cidr_block - (Required) An individual public IP prefix (CIDR) to add to the public virtual circuit. Must be /31 or less specific.
  • region - (Optional) The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region where this virtual circuit is located. Example: phx

  • type - (Required) The type of IP addresses used in this virtual circuit. PRIVATE means RFC 1918 addresses (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16/12, and 192.168/16). Only PRIVATE is supported.

** IMPORTANT ** Any change to a property that does not support update will force the destruction and recreation of the resource with the new property values
