azure_express_route_circuit resource

Use the azure_express_route_circuit InSpec audit resource to test the properties of an Azure ExpressRoute circuit resource.

Azure REST API version, endpoint, and HTTP client parameters

This resource interacts with API versions supported by the resource provider. You can specify the api_version as a resource parameter to use a specific version of the Azure REST API. If you don’t specify an API version, this resource uses the latest version available. For more information about API versioning, see the azure_generic_resource.

By default, this resource uses the azure_cloud global endpoint and default HTTP client settings. You can override these settings if you need to connect to a different Azure environment (such as Azure Government or Azure China). For more information about configuration options, see the resource pack README.

Syntax

This resource requires the resource_group and ExpressRoute circuit circuit_name parameters, or the resource_id parameter for a valid query.

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  it { should exist }
end

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_id: 'RESOURCE_ID') do
  it { should exist }
end

Parameters

resource_group: The Azure resource group where the targeted resource resides.
circuit_name: The name of the ExpressRoute circuit.
resource_id: The resource ID of the ExpressRoute circuit.

Provide the resource_group and name parameters, or the resource_id parameter for a valid query.

Also, see the Azure documentation for other available properties. You can access any attribute in the response with the key names separated by dots (.).

Examples

Test an ExpressRoute circuit resource has the correct type:

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('type') { should eq 'Microsoft.Network/expressRouteCircuits' }
end

Test an ExpressRoute circuit resource is in a successful state:

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('provisioning_state') { should eq 'Succeeded' }
end

Test the location of an ExpressRoute circuit resource:

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'EXPRESS_CIRCUIT_NAME') do
  its('location') { should eq 'RESOURCE_LOCATION' }
end

  it { should exist }
end

not_exists

# If an express circuit resources that aren't found, will not exist.

describe azure_express_route_circuit(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', circuit_name: 'DOESNOTEXIST') do
  it { should_not exist }
end
