Any idea where I could find the VMware appliance? I have searched Google and found lots of references to the program but not a VMware appliance. I can install this under Linux but if I can get a virtual machine is already configured, that would be great.

Hi list, I was wondering if there were special ways to discover networks topologies / mapping networks. Are there particular tools or methods I should be aware of ? The few tools I tried only gave me approximative results. However I think nmap + the standard unix tools can do a good part of the job. Moreover, what are the differences between discovering an organisation's network from the inside, and from the outside ? I mean, what are the best practices to discover network equipments, subnets, VPNs, etc? I know that traceroute can be a good starting point, but are there some other tools and techniques I should know ? Regards,
Try Netdisco - google it. There's even a VMWare appliance of it.
