Leslie,

I would recommend the ACL Manager from CiscoWorks2000.  A great product.  We
have been doing some testing and are planning on using this in a very large
deployment.

Best Regards,

We had our round a couple of months ago, remember?

Now for the Cisco situation. What are people using for massively telneting
to devices and issuing commands? In my current situation I am looking at
implementing ACLs for a few thousand devices. I know there are commercial
products out there for running scripts on devices. Any recommendations?

Cordially,

Oy...there goes the neighborhood.  NetView is clean, but a bunch of
devices in the average network are likely to be vulnerable:
        http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-03.html


I'm curious if anyone know how NetView got branded as not vulnerable
to trap format string attacks without the dependency on the security
e-Fix from 6.02 that came out in response to:
        http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2001-24.html

Perhaps because that vulnerability only existed if you launched
external scripts in event processing forked by ovactiond?
