Shell command to query ARIN for CIDRs from SAN

[tonyg]

Does anyone have a shell command to query the ARIN whois server for a list of CIDRs that belong to a SAN.

I just can't seem to find the correct switches.

In other words, something along the lines of (this obviously does not work):

whois -h whois.arin.net -T route ASXXXXX

I think ARIN puts route objects in rr.arin.net instead of whois.arin.net, but even then not many ARIN members seem to care about creating route objects there.

ARIN's IRR db is very, very sparsely populated.

For people caring about IRR at all, querying RADB is probably your best bet.

You can also use the RIPE RIS API if you want to know the prefixes actually announced instead of registered, works very well.

Use ARIN's scripts to do a whois. http://projects.arin.net/arinr/arincli.7.html- Use the "arininfo" script.

Note the script does require Ruby. You'll get an like what you see below.

# ./arininfo as62639

# ARINcli v.0.6.0
# Assuming query value is ASNUMBER
