Dan,
When you are pulling the info from the core routers, are you 
doing that through a command line or gui?  If so, why not 
code the process to pull the info via snmp?  You would get 
the subnets and netmasks, and you would be able to format 
that data however you want.

Greetings,

 

I am trying to figure out the best way to produce a comprehensive list 
of subnets on our global network in order to feed it into Nessus.  Due 
to the size of our network and the dynamic nature of it, a new list 
really ought to be generated at least quarterly…if not monthly.  I have 
tried simply pulling a routing table off one of the core routers, but 
the resulting file requires too much reformatting to make it fit for 
this use.  There has to be an easier way!

 

I wonder if any of you have found a convenient approach to dealing with 
this requirement?  If so, would you be willing to share your lessons 
learned?  Thanks.
