aws_public_ips is a tool to fetch all public IP addresses (both IPv4/IPv6) associated with an AWS account.
It can be used as a library and as a CLI, and supports the following AWS services (all with both Classic & VPC flavors):
- APIGateway
- CloudFront
- EC2 (and as a result: ECS, EKS, Beanstalk, Fargate, Batch, & NAT Instances)
- ElasticSearch
- ELB (Classic ELB)
- ELBv2 (ALB/NLB)
- Lightsail
- RDS
- Redshift
If a service isn't listed (S3, ElastiCache, etc) it's most likely because it doesn't have anything to support (i.e. it might not be deployable publicly, it might have all ip addresses resolve to global AWS infrastructure, etc).
Quick start
Install the gem and run it:
$ gem install aws_public_ips
# Uses default ~/.aws/credentials
$ aws_public_ips

2600:9000:2039:6e00:1a:cd27:1440:93a1
# With a custom profile
$ AWS_PROFILE=production aws_public_ips

AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_REGION
AWS_PROFILE
- Shared credentials files:
~/.aws/credentials
~/.aws/config
- Instance profile via metadata endpoint (if running on EC2, ECS, EKS, or Fargate)
IAM permissions
To find the public IPs from all AWS services, the minimal policy needed by your IAM user is:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"apigateway:GET",
"cloudfront:ListDistributions",
"ec2:DescribeInstances",
"elasticloadbalancing:DescribeLoadBalancers",
"lightsail:GetInstances",
"lightsail:GetLoadBalancers",
"rds:DescribeDBInstances",
"redshift:DescribeClusters"
],
"Resource": "*"
}
]
}
