Only way I know how to do it is with the use of Net::SNMP and Net::Ping. Use Net::SNMP to get a list of adjacent networks from routers, and use net::Ping to ping sweep those networks looking for new nodes. Basically repeat that process until the network is mapped. That's a very very simplified explanation. There are entire books written on SNMP and you have to be pretty familiar with that service to know how to get the info you need. If you have any specific questions about anything i've said, i'm happy to explain further. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
