netrange is a CLI utility that is able to fetch lists of IP ranges used by common cloud services, filter those lists by attributes provided by the cloud providers, and then optionally minimize the set of resulting ranges.

The following cloud services are supported:

• AWS
• Azure
• Cloudflare
• DigitalOcean
• Fastly
• GCP
• Github
• Google (all Google services, including GCP)

An example:

netrange cloud get-merge aws --filter "return service == 'EC2' and region == 'us-east-1'"

will download the current list of IP ranges being used by AWS, filter out everything except those being used for EC2 servers in the us-east-1 region, and then minimize the result by merging any adjacent IP ranges.

Precompiled binaries are available from the Release Pages for Linux, Mac OS, and Windows (32 & 64 bit).

Or, you can compile from source:

1. Download and install Rust.

2. Then run:

   cargo install netrange

netrange support "merge" and "read" operations. Both operations will read a set of ranges published by a cloud provider and write ranges, 1-per line to STDOUT. The "merge" operations will, however, also minimize the output by merging adjacent ranges. The "read" operations will not merge any ranges, however - whatever the cloud service lists for ranges is what will be output.

netrange supports extracting a smaller set of ranges of interest from the full set of ranges published by the cloud services using LUA scripts. There are two operations available: filtering and selecting. A filter program should return a False value for any ranges that should be thrown away and a True value for other ranges. A select program runs after filtering and it should return a True value for any ranges that must be present in the output and a False value for ranges that may be present in the output, but don't have to be.

As an example,

netrange cloud get-read aws --filter "return service == 'EC2' and region == 'us-east-1'"

Currently returns 124 ranges, as this is the number of IP ranges that AWS publishes for EC2 servers in the us-east-1 region.

netrange cloud get-merge aws --filter "return service == 'EC2' and region == 'us-east-1'"

Currently returns 112 ranges, as some of the 124 ranges that AWS publishes are adjacent and can be merged to produce a smaller output set.

netrange cloud get-merge aws --select "return service == 'EC2' and region == 'us-east-1'"

Currently returns 90 ranges. We get the smaller number of output ranges because we didn't throw away non-EC2 and non-us-east-1 ranges but instead used them to minimize the output set: some EC2 ranges may have gaps between them used by other services and by using those ranges to fill in the gaps we can merge ranges more aggressively. The tradeoff, of course, is that the output no longer represents only the EC2 ranges.

Different cloud services provide different attributes available for filtering and selecting. The cloud filter-help <service> subcommand cane be used to see which attributes are available for a particular service.

The cloud get subcommand will fetch the source file that contains IP ranges published by the given service and write it to STDOUT. This will often be a JSON file - but can be other formats as well.

Example:

netrange cloud get aws

The cloud read subcommand will read in the range file provided by the service (which may have been retrieved by cloud get) and write all IP ranges, 1-per line, to STDOUT.

Adjacent ranges are not merged in the output.

The ranges that are printed may optionally be filtered by attributes that the cloud service provides.

Example:

netrange cloud read aws aws-ip-ranges.json

The cloud merge subcommand will read in the range file provided by the service (which may have been retrieved by cloud get) and write all IP ranges, 1-per line, to STDOUT.

Adjacent ranges are merged in the output.

Filter and select LUA programs may be used to control which ranges are represented in the output.

Example:

netrange cloud merge aws aws-ip-ranges.json

The cloud get-read subcommand is a shortcut for first using the cloud get subcommand and then feeding the result into the cloud read subcommand.

netrange cloud cloud-get aws

The cloud get-merge subcommand is a shortcut for first using the cloud get subcommand and then feeding the result into the cloud merge subcommand.

netrange cloud cloud-merge aws

The cloud filter-help subcommand will print to STDOUT information about what attributes are available for filtering and selecting for the given cloud service.

netrange cloud filter-help aws

The merge subcommand will read in a list of IP ranges from the given file (or STDIN if no file is "-"), merge adjacent ranges, and then print the resulting ranges to STDOUT.

netrange supports rustc 1.45 and later.

The minimum supported rustc version may be bumped with minor revisions.
