Isn't there some icmp or ip based packet that can be sent to most
devices querying the subnet theyare in? I am on vacation with only
blackberry and can't google it, but someone out there must be familiar
with that??

Hi,
You can find lot's of the subnet structure with ping & traceroute scans
already. First, you can use the ping functionality of nmap (nmap -sP)
which should give you information about network and broadcast
addresses.
If you found these parts, you already know how the subnetting is done.
With traceroute, you'll find out how these subnets are connected to
eachother.
Of course, if there's a router that has snmp enabled, try to find one
of
the community strings & dump the routing table of this router...
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dieter

Subject: Find out the subnetting of a company
During an internal black-box penetration test, from a subnet
of a company (with or without DHCP), how do you find out the
structure of the other subnets of network? In particular, how
do you determine/discover the subnetting of the IP space of a company?
An example:
- IP network of the company XYZ: 10.0.0.0/8 (I use a private
class to avoid the use of a real address space)
- I?m in the subnet 10.0.0.0/24
How do you find out the structure of other subnets that are
part of the network 10.0.0.0/8?
