VPC Availability-Zone Subnet Test

VPC AZ Subnet Test

It's not uncommon in older AWS accounts (i.e. with EC2-Classic) to come across a "depreciated zone" where VPC subnets are not permitted. This Python script tests creating a VPC subnet in each availability-zone for every AWS region.

Requirements:

• Tested w/ python version 2.7 / boto version 2.34
• A valid profile in ~/.aws/config or ${AWS_CONFIG_FILE} with the appropriate API keys

Usage:

subnet-test.py -p <profile>

Output:

./subnet-test.py -p eng
