Add support for connecting using Amazon SSM.
Review Request #14191 — Created Sept. 26, 2024 and submitted — Latest diff uploaded
Amazon SSM provides on-demand SSH access to hosts that may not be
exposed to the Internet in any form, adding extra security to
infrastructure.SSM support can now be enabled by passign
use_ssm=True
to
EC2RoleDefs
. This will result in EC2 instance IDs being returned
instead of hostnames.This does require
~/.ssh/config
to be configured properly for SSM
support, and thatenv.use_ssh_config = True
is enabled in the
fabfile.
Tested this with our deployment infrastructure and verified that
Fabric and Paramiko engaged with SSM and connected.
