Configure Site-to-Site VPN + +After deployment, retrieve VPN configuration from AWS Console: +1. Navigate to VPC → Site-to-Site VPN Connections +2. Select the VPN connection for your region +3. Download the configuration for your router/firewall +4. Configure your on-premises device using the downloaded config + +### 3. Access Pi-hole Admin Interface + +**Via VPN**: +``` +http://pi.hole/admin +``` + +**Via Public ALB** (if enabled): +The URL is provided in the CDK output as `admin-public-url` + +### 4. Configure DNS Endpoints + +The private IP addresses of the DNS endpoints are provided in the CDK outputs: +- `dns1`: First DNS endpoint IP +- `dns2`: Second DNS endpoint IP + +Configure your router or DHCP server to use these IPs. + +## Troubleshooting + +### Issue: VPC Lookup Fails + +**Error**: `Cannot find VPC with name 'vpc-name'` + +**Solution**: +1. Verify VPC exists in the target region: + ```bash + aws ec2 describe-vpcs \ + --region eu-central-1 \ + --filters "Name=tag:Name,Values=frankfurt-vpc" + ``` +2. Ensure VPC has a Name tag +3. Check CDK context cache: `cdk context --clear` + +### Issue: Stack Already Exists + +**Error**: `Stack PiHoleCdkStack-Frankfurt already exists` + +**Solution**: +- Update existing stack: `cdk deploy PiHoleCdkStack-Frankfurt` +- Delete and recreate: `cdk destroy PiHoleCdkStack-Frankfurt` then deploy again + +### Issue: Insufficient Capacity + +**Error**: `We currently do not have sufficient t4g.small capacity` + +**Solution**: +1.

Either: +1. Delete the old secret: + ```bash + aws secretsmanager delete-secret \ + --secret-id pihole-pwd-eu-central-1 \ + --region eu-central-1 \ + --force-delete-without-recovery + ``` +2. Or import existing secret into the new stack + +## Maintenance and Updates + +### Updating the Stack + +To update an existing deployment: + +```bash +# Update Frankfurt stack +cdk deploy \ + -c local_ip=203.123.45.67 \ + -c local_internal_cidr=192.168.0.0/16 \ + -c deployment_regions='["eu-central-1"]' \ + -c vpc_name=frankfurt-vpc \ + -c keypair=frankfurt-pihole \ + PiHoleCdkStack-Frankfurt +``` + +### Instance Refresh + +Instances are automatically replaced every 7 days due to `maxInstanceLifetime` setting.

Access Pi-hole admin UI +2. Settings → Teleporter +3. Export settings + +### Destroying Resources + +To remove all resources from a region: + +```bash +# Destroy Frankfurt deployment +cdk destroy \ + -c deployment_regions='["eu-central-1"]' \ + --all +``` + +**Warning**: This will delete all data including EFS volumes and secrets.

Post-Deployment Configuration + +#### 4.1 Retrieve Admin Password + +```bash +# Get Pi-hole admin password from AWS Secrets Manager +aws secretsmanager get-secret-value \ + --secret-id pihole-pwd-eu-central-1 \ + --region eu-central-1 \ + --query SecretString \ + --output text +``` + +#### 4.2 Configure Site-to-Site VPN + +1. **Navigate to AWS Console**: VPC → Site-to-Site VPN Connections +2. **Select Frankfurt region** +3. **Find your VPN connection**: Named `pihole-vpn-eu-central-1` +4. **Download configuration** for your router/firewall brand +5. **Configure your on-premises device** using the downloaded config + +#### 4.3 Configure DNS Settings + +After VPN is established: + +1. **Get DNS endpoint IPs** from CDK output (dns1 and dns2) +2. **Configure your router's DHCP settings** to use these DNS servers: + - Primary DNS: [dns1 IP from CDK output] + - Secondary DNS: [dns2 IP from CDK output] +3. **Test DNS resolution**: `nslookup google.com [dns1-ip]` + +#### 4.4 Access Pi-hole Admin Interface + +**Via VPN (Recommended)**: +``` +http://pi.hole/admin +``` + +**Via Public ALB (if enabled)**: +URL provided in CDK output as `admin-public-url` + +## 🔧

+### Issue: VPC Not Found in Frankfurt + +**Error**: `Cannot find VPC with name 'your-vpc-name' in region eu-central-1` + +**Solutions**: +1. **Verify VPC exists**: + ```bash + aws ec2 describe-vpcs \
