How to use powershell script to get EC2 instance public IP and private IP address through this information? And list the IPs for these instances

Answer 1

If you have not already done so.
How about downloading and install the AWs PowerShell tools and use their native cmdlets to extract this information.
AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell
The AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell lets developers and
administrators manage their AWS services from the Windows PowerShell
scripting environment. Now you can manage your AWS resources with the
same Windows PowerShell tools you use to manage your Windows
environment

AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell Users Guide
The AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell are a set of PowerShell cmdlets
that are built on top of the functionality exposed by the AWS SDK for
.NET. The AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell enable you to script
operations on your AWS resources from the PowerShell command line.
Although the cmdlets are implemented using the service clients and
methods from the SDK, the cmdlets provide an idiomatic PowerShell
experience for specifying parameters and handling results. For
example, the cmdlets for the PowerShell Tools support PowerShell
pipelining—that is, you can pipeline PowerShell objects both into and
out of the cmdlets.
The AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell are flexible in how they enable
you to handle credentials including support for the AWS Identity and
Access Management (IAM) infrastructure; you can use the tools with IAM
user credentials, temporary security tokens, and IAM roles. The AWS
Tools for Windows PowerShell support the same set of services and
regions as supported by the SDK.

Answer 2

To view an individual EC2 Instance's Private IP, run this, substituting your specific InstanceId and region:
(Get-Ec2Instance -InstanceId i-9999999999999999 -Region us-east-1).Instances.PrivateIpAddress
For the public (if it has one) use:
(Get-Ec2Instance -InstanceId i-9999999999999999 -Region us-east-1).Instances.PublicIpAddress
If the EC2 Instance has a Public IP and you want to know whether it is and Elastic IP (static) or assigned from AWS public IP pool, you can check the OwnerId of the NetworkInterface Association. For Elastic IP's, the OwnerId will be your account id; for Public IP's assigned from the AWS IP Pool, it will be something with "amazon", such as "amazon-ebs" or just "amazon":
$AccountId = Get-AWSAccount
$ec2 = (Get-Ec2Instance -InstanceId i-99999999999999999 -Region us-east-1).Instances
if ($ec2.PublicIpAddress) {
if ($ec2.NetworkInterfaces.Association.IpOwnerId -like $AccountId) {
Write-Output ("Elastic IP: {0}" -f $ec2.PublicIpAddress)
}
else {
Write-Output ("AWS Public IP Pool {0}" -f $ec2.PublicIpAddress)
}
}
Be aware that if your EC2 is using the AWS Public IP Pool that none will be assigned when the Instance is powered off. It is released when powered off and gets a new one when the Instance is powered back on. Refer to Amazon EC2 Instance IP Addressing for more details.
