If you don't plan on assigning your instances IP to a DNS entry you can safely remove dns.tf and instance_vpn.tf.

Examples

// Configure the Vultr provider. 
// Alternatively, export the API key as an environment variable: `export VULTR_API_KEY=<your-vultr-api-key>`.
provider "vultr" {
  api_key = "<your-vultr-api-key>"
}

// Find the ID of the Silicon Valley region.

}

// Find the ID for CoreOS Container Linux.

}

// Find the ID for a starter plan.
