Overview

Creates AWS Network Firewall with stateless and stateful rule groups, firewall policies, and logging configuration.

What It Does

  • Network Firewall with configurable VPC and subnets
  • Stateless rule groups for fast packet filtering
  • Stateful rule groups (Suricata-compatible rules)
  • Firewall policy with default actions
  • CloudWatch and S3 logging for flow and alert logs
  • Domain-based filtering with stateful rules

For more information about this repository and its usage, please see Terraform AWS NETWORK FIREWALL Usage Guide.
