Debug Output

        Error: Error creating vpn connection: InvalidCustomerGatewayID.NotFound: The customerGateway ID 'cgw-062551d454e44313b' does not exist
            status code: 400, request id: 35fc745e-b7a9-4f92-84fe-31911abc45e8

          with aws_vpn_connection.test,
          on terraform_plugin_test.tf line 11, in resource "aws_vpn_connection" "test":
          11: resource "aws_vpn_connection" "test" {

Expected Behavior

Should create aws_vpn_connection. This only occurs on rare occasions. As such, it is likely an eventual consistency problem on the aws_customer_gateway side, which should verify it is available prior to leaving Create().

Actual Behavior

aws_vpn_connection fails due to aws_customer_gateway not existing (yet, possibly).

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply
