+# About it-linux-base
+
+This describes how to use the aws-common-security-groups submodule for it-linux-base.
+
+Commonly used ports and services are set up here, including ICMP, SSH, NTP, DNS, SNMP,  
+monit, munin, iperf, netperf, NetBackup and Opsware.
+
+## Usage
+
+```hcl
+module "it-linux-base" {
+  source = "git@github.e.it.census.gov:terraform-modules/aws-common-security-groups.git//it-linux-base"
+
+  # name = "m-it-linux-base"
+  vpc_id = var.vpc_id
+  # Name, CostAllocation, and Environment are pre-set, but they can be overriden
+  # tags = { }
+}
+```
