Thanks for all the feedback. I'm not really worried
about being vulnerable, as indeed any wise network
admin turns off the web interface for routers and
switches. More so, I was worried if my corp was being
specifically targetted or not. When you see 200+ IP's
hitting some specific machines on your network, I
would tend to worry about a potential DoS. From all
the replies, apparently it is more widespread and not
just after me. Thanks again.

We recently picked up a spike in TCP 80 scanning
against one of our 
netblocks.

Looking at the payload, it appears to be a Cisco
vulnerability scanner.

/level/16/exec/-///pwd

Numerous random source IP's across various
netblocks, makes it appear to 
be bot related potentially. Anyone else seeing
this type of activity?
