Subject: Cisco Switches Layer 2 Security

Hi LIst,

I need to put together a security standards document for my IT department for the secure configuration of Layer 2 
security on Cisco switches. Can you point me to a security hardening document and/or a tool that can test for L2 
vulnerabilities?

Thanks!
