This is a small program for getting a hold of the state of your AWS network. It maps out a VPC region of your choice
On a recent Ubuntu system these packages are needed
apt-get install -y graphviz-dev libxml2-dev libssl-dev carton
git clone https://github.com/pplu/aws-map.git
cd aws-map
carton install
Give it an AWS region to scan
carton exec perl -I lib bin/map_network_sgs eu-west-1
And it will generate three files: graph.svg
, graph.dot
and graph.png
. These
all have the same contents in different formats SVG, DOT (for graphviz) and PNG
The generated graph attempts to show you your AWS region from a networking perspetive. It shows you what can talk to what, at an IP level.
The graphs' nodes are "things" that can talk IP (Network hosts, Instances, etc.)
Network Hosts and Network Ranges are represented as Ellipses.
Instances, RDSs, ELBs... (AWS objects) are represented with a rectangle.
Hexagons are Security Groups with nothing in them.
Arrows tell you in what direction IP connections (TCP, UDP, ICMP, etc) can flow (what can talk to what). Only incoming connections are graphed (Outbound rules aren't scanned yet). When a port range is not labeled, it means that the ports are TCP (i.e.: "25" means TCP port 25. "25-27" means TCP ports 25 to 27). If the ports are UDP, they are indicated: "25-27 UDP").
With a quick look at the example graph we can see the following:
"Things in ...../32" is an IP that can talk to ...Server via port 5671
There is a Security Group (in the upper left) with nothing in it that can talk to an ALB. That ALB can talk to it's backend instance through ports 8000 and 3000. That backend instance talks to an RDS via port 3306.
This tool only evaluates incoming Security Group rules. That means that Subnet ACLs, Routing tables, etc. are not taken into account to calculate if a host can actually talk to another.
When you graph a big account, it can take a while. Be patient. Also take into account that the graph can be hard to look at.
Contributions are more than welcome. Take a look at the Perl Graphviz module to control the graph better: https://metacpan.org/pod/GraphViz2
