Hi,

A network recon question: When pen testing an environment that deploys 
multi-layer switching, how can one reliably map the network and the relative 
location of all of the switches?

Add to this VLANS... How can you map VLANs that are on the network, especially 
if your access is but on one VLAN, and that VLAN is different than the switch 
management VLAN?

Thoughts, tools, tricks, white papers, etc. appreciated.

THANKS!
Jon Kibler
