used for SSH with the machine. The key must match a key pair name loaded
up into Amazon EC2. By default, this is blank, and Packer will
generate a temporary keypair. `ssh_private_key_file` must be specified
when `ssh_keypair_name` is utilized.
- `ssh_private_ip` (boolean) - If true, then SSH will always use the private
IP if available.
- `ssh_private_key_file` (string) - Is required if `ssh_keypair_name` is
specified. This is the name of a private SSH key file located on the
same machine running packer so the packer scripts can SSH into the machine
being created (eg. - /home/mitchellh/.ssh/id_rsa).
- `subnet_id` (string) - If using VPC, the ID of the subnet, such as
"subnet-12345def", where Packer will launch the EC2 instance. This field is
required if you are using an non-default VPC.
