packer build ec2 type amazon-instance

252 views Asked by At

I'm building an ec2 using Packer. in the builders type there are amazon-ebs and amazon-instance (there are more but that relevant for me). My question is, in the amazon-instance required configuration reference there are two mandatory objects: x509_cert_path and x509_key_path

I'm having a lot of trouble with those two, first I don't understand why it is mandatory? what is the purpose of those certificates? second I don't understand what I should do, I've seen this AWS documentation page and I did all those steps. What's next?

Help would be super appreciated, thank you!
