Use a lookup file to tag IP blocks

So what I want to do is tag all IPs that belong to certain AWS regions and filter out those IPs. I want to try and tag them the most efficient way. I thought maybe a lookup file with all of their IP blocks. Are lookup files capable of doing this? I know that you can just use
ip="52.95.245.0/24" and that would filter out all IPs in that block but they have a ton of regions which would be a really large query (almost 2000 blocks!). Any direction would be helpful. 🙂

Since tagging is last in the order of operations, it should be possible as long as you have information about all of the subnets in use across AWS regions.
