Subject: Default Account scanning

A few years ago, an audit was performed on the netowrk i worked on.
A tool was use to crawl the network and attempt a login to systems
using the default user name and password.

I have perform this manually by enumerating systems (switches.routers,
appliances) and testing them against default password lists, but I was
wondering if there was a tool out there that handled this type of
automated scan.

I know that Nessus will handle some of this.

Any other tools that come to mind?
