### Description{% #description %}

The `nifcloud_router` is configured to use the common private network (`net-COMMON_PRIVATE`). This rule detects `nifcloud_router` resources where `network_interface[_].network_id` or `network_interface.network_id` is set to `net-COMMON_PRIVATE`. The router should use a dedicated private LAN to isolate the private-side network from the shared network.

## Compliant Code Examples{% #compliant-code-examples %}

```terraform
resource "nifcloud_router" "negative" {
  security_group  = nifcloud_security_group.example.group_name

  network_interface {
    network_id = nifcloud_private_lan.main.id
  }
}
```

## Non-Compliant Code Examples{% #non-compliant-code-examples %}

```terraform
resource "nifcloud_router" "positive" {
  security_group  = nifcloud_security_group.example.group_name

  network_interface {
    network_id = "net-COMMON_GLOBAL"
  }

  network_interface {
    network_id = "net-COMMON_PRIVATE"
  }
}
```

```terraform
resource "nifcloud_router" "positive" {
  security_group  = nifcloud_security_group.example.group_name

  network_interface {
    network_id = "net-COMMON_PRIVATE"
  }
}
```
