lwp-rget will fetch only the page you specify and any others that the pages it has already read link to. Fetching a page without specifying a full URL usually results in either a default web page for that address or a directory listing (or an error 404) so lwp-rget www.123.com is the same as lwp-rget http://www.rget.com/index.htm and you will get the index.htm file, and all the resources that file links to, and all that they in turn link to and so on.
