-title: About the aws_vpc_subnet Resource
----
-
-# aws_vpc_subnet
-
-Use the `aws_vpc_subnet` InSpec audit resource to test properties of a vpc subnet.
-
-To test properties of a single VPC subnet, use the `aws_vpc_subnet` resource.
-
-To test properties of all or a group of VPC subnets, use the `aws_vpc_subnets` resource.
-
-<br>
-
-## Syntax
-
-An `aws_vpc_subnet` resource block uses the parameter to select a VPC and a subnet in the VPC.
-
-    describe aws_vpc_subnet(vpc_id: 'vpc-01234567', subnet_id: 'subnet-1234567') do

-
-## Resource Parameters
-
-This InSpec resource accepts the following parameters, which are used to search for the VPCs subnet.
