EC2 Browser

The EC2 view gives you instances, networking and Auto Scaling in one place, refreshed every few seconds.

A summary row at the top counts instances, how many are running and stopped, and security groups.

The instance list shows ID, name, state, type, public IP and launch time, with a filter and sorting. Opening an instance shows:

  • Details: state, type, AMI, key pair, launch time, and user data decoded from base64.
  • Networking: VPC, subnet, and public and private IPs.
  • Security: attached security groups.
  • Tags, with an editor.
  • Raw JSON.

From the instance you can Start a stopped instance, and Stop or Reboot a running one. Terminate asks for confirmation first.

The security group list shows ID, name, VPC and how many inbound and outbound rules each has. Opening one lists every rule with protocol, port range, IPv4 or IPv6 source or destination, and description.

Each VPC shows its CIDR block and whether it is the default, with a table of its subnets: ID, CIDR, availability zone and available IPs.

Each group shows its desired, minimum and maximum capacity and its instances with lifecycle state, health and availability zone. The details include the ARN, health check grace period, availability zones and load balancers.
