Azure Virtual Network Peering

Terraform module to generate a Virtual Network Peering between two Virtual Networks which can belong to two different Azure Subscriptions.

Limitations

• Peering between two virtual networks in different tenants isn't possible.

Usage

This module is optimized to work with the Claranet terraform-wrapper tool which set some terraform variables in the environment needed by this module. More details about variables set by the terraform-wrapper available in the documentation.

⚠️ Since modules version v8.0.0, we do not maintain/check anymore the compatibility with Hashicorp Terraform. Instead, we recommend to use OpenTofu.
