Overview

An AWS subnet is a sub-section of a VPC, walled gardens within the walled garden; they share a space of IP addresses with other subnets in the VPC but can otherwise be walled off from each other.

‘name` is not guaranteed unique for an AWS account; therefore, Chef will store the subnet ID associated with this name in your Chef server in the data bag `data/aws_subnet/<name>`.

API documentation for the AWS Ruby SDK for VPCs (and the object returned from ‘aws_object` can be found here:
