On the other hand SNMP is not enabled by default on most (I think all) Cisco
routers. So if someone has enabled SNMP there is a good chance they know
what they are doing and have secured it. It is possible to grab the config
off the router if you have the proper read permissions though.

Hi All,
I am using NMap for finding network devices such as routers, switches,
etc. Is there anyway, by which I can get information from the routers
such as access control list on an interface, currently running 
services,
etc.
If yes, then can some one point me in the right direction? Web site?
News groups? etc...

Not using nmap by itself.

you can get the info with snmp, sort of.  You can get some cisco 
devices to do a tftp copy of the configs with snmp if you have write 
permissions.  It does depend on the device, but I think most routers 
and switches support it, while the PIX does not (last I checked).  
Other than that, you can script out using expect or perl (or others) to 
log in via ssh or telnet to get the configs.
