Description

AWS has introduced a new Route 53 IP Based Routing Policy, see: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/introducing-ip-based-routing-for-amazon-route-53/

It seems there is a pre-step to using it though.
First you have to create a CIDR Collection, and associate some CIDRs with it
Then you can create a Route 53 record with a value for the above collection, and another value for '*'.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_route53_record

Hi @mendhak,

Thanks for taking the time to raise this feature request. I'll happily look into this and see if I can figure this one out.

I think that we're going to have to create a new route53 resource called aws_route53_cidr_collection which can be used to refer to a CIDR location in the IP-based routing policy (the IP-based routing policy is to be added as part of the aws_route53_record resource.

Started to actively work on this, going to take some time as the API is very poorly designed.

On hold for a moment; checking together with @ewbankkit on how to nicely integrate this with the existing Route53 CidrCollection API.

Hello @bschaatsbergen
Sorry for pinging you.
Is there any chance this feature will be implemented?

[ewbankkit]

I think we'll go with 2 new resource:

• aws_route53_cidr_collection
• aws_route53_cidr_location

and add a cidr_routing_policy configuration block to aws_route53_record.
