Hi Guys,

I was wondering whether there are any "router" specific or router focused
vulnerability scanners..

Scanners that can detect vulnerabilities on routers which are not evident on
the standard o/s platforms,(unix..windows..)

In particular I'm after the best scanner for Cisco Routers.
(Cisco Secure Scanner appears not to really have much focus on router
devices)

Does anyone have any suggestions?

cheers

Daniel
