 # tf_aws_bastion_s3_keys
 
-A Terraform module for creating resilient bastion host using auto-scaling group (min=max=desired=1) and populate its
-`~/.ssh/authorized_keys` with public keys fetched from S3 bucket.
+A Terraform module for creating a resilient bastion host using auto-scaling group (min=max=desired=1) and populate its
+`~/.ssh/authorized_keys` with public keys fetched from S3 bucket. Access is via a classic elastic load balancer, which makes it possible to create a Route53 Alias record pointing to the ELB.
 
-This module can append public keys, setup cron to update them and run
-additional commands at the end of setup. Note that if it is set up to
-update the keys, removing a key from the bucket will also remove it from
-the bastion host.

@@ -53,43 +53,32 @@ Basic example - In your terraform code add something like this:
       additional_user_data_script = "date"
     }
 
-If you want to assign EIP to instance launched by auto-scaling group you can provide desired `eip` as module input
-and then execute `additional_user_data_script` which sets EIP. This way you can use Route53 with EIP, which will always
-point to existing bastion instance.  You will also need to add allow_associateaddress permission to iam_instance_profile (see `samples/iam_allow_associateaddress.tf`):
+By default, an external IP is allocated to the ELB instance.
+
+If you want to create a Route53 Alias record pointing to the public DNS name of the ELB, you should use code something like this:
 
     module "bastion" {
-      // see above
-      eip = "${aws_eip.bastion.public_ip}"
-      iam_instance_profile        = "s3_readonly-allow_associateaddress"
-      additional_user_data_script = <<EOF
-    REGION=$(curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/dynamic/instance-identity/document | grep region | awk -F\" '{print $4}')
-    INSTANCE_ID=$(curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/instance-id)
-    aws ec2 associate-address --region $REGION --instance-id $INSTANCE_ID --allocation-id ${aws_eip.bastion.id}
-    EOF
+      // as above
     }
 
-    resource "aws_eip" "bastion" {
-      vpc = true
+    data "aws_route53_zone" "zone" {
+      name = "example.com"
     }
 
-    resource "aws_route53_record" "bastion" {
-      zone_id = "..."
+    resource "aws_route53_record" "alias" {

       type    = "A"
-      ttl     = "3600"
-      records = ["${aws_eip.bastion.public_ip}"]
+
+      alias {
+        name                   = "${module.bastion.dns_name}"
+        zone_id                = "${module.bastion.zone_id}"
+        evaluate_target_health = "false"
+      }
     }
 
 After you run `terraform apply` you should be able to login to your bastion host like:
 
-    $ ssh ${module.bastion.ssh_user}@${module.bastion.instance_ip}
-
-or:
-
-    $ ssh ${module.bastion.ssh_user}@${aws_eip.bastion.public_ip}
-
-or even like this:
-
     $ ssh ubuntu@bastion.example.com
 
 PS: In some cases you may consider adding flag `-A` to ssh command to enable forwarding of the authentication agent connection.
