Will,Yes, nmap can do that assuming that traffic can be sent from nmap to the target. Read the man pages. :)

Dear Experts, Can NMAP map and traverse multiple networks with a single enterprise.I am looking for a nice open source network discovery tool that can discover hosts and their services within a enterprise/corporate environment.Example enterprise network topology: GatewayFirewall --> DMZ Servers --> Tier2-Firewall --> Application Servers --> Tier3-Firewall --> Databases --> Corp-LANIt would be handy to use a tool to traverse the network (including firewalls and routers) to map out the entire network for host types and service they run. Presumably all firewalls in the enterprise network would have rules to permit the dedicated host running nmap.Is NMAP capable of this if its only hosted/running in a single tier or should I be looking at: multiple instances of nmap or another tool (www.netdisco.org/ ) or a combination of tools.regards, Will.
