Re: Mapping Class A network ( any easy trick?)

Hi Ron,

I was thinking of broadcast and multicast routing updates only. Most
systems are on switches, and didn't really want to suggest playing games
with redirecting switched traffic to learn src/dst ip addreesses. ;->

Another way to obtain the routing table, would be to to probe the routers
for default snmp strings.
