To clarify:
I know that most "vulnerabilities" in HSRP and such are DoS or spoofing (man-in-the-middle attacks) or both... is there 
a way, besides sniffing and analyzing just the traffic, to test router/switch configurations for flaws.  a "probing 
method" if you will...such as with a nessus plugin or ISS? (this is per a client request) 

I am familiar with IRPAS (attack suite: http://www.phenoelit.de/irpas/docu.html), but i need something less intrusive 
and highly automated that addresses the same protocols...

odd..i know...

Does anyone have any actual testing software or scripts to test VRRP and HSRP specfically?  

Or does everyone do it manually if asked to do so?  

Which COTS or open-source scanning products offer layer 2 or 3 testing modules?

thanks ahead of time!
