Hi,
 
 
Someone from the security group would do "Open port" scan
monthly for the networks & servers.  For the Sun servers, we
would usually do "netstat -n" to see the "open ports" & then
edit the inetd.conf to close up unnecessary ports.
 
Is there something similar for Cisco devices/routers, say,
tweak existing ACLs or create new ACLs so that the unnecessary
ports are not opened?  Besides ACL, is there anything more I
could do?  If anyone can point to a url that explains these,
appreciate it.
 
Is the command to see what's the open ports for a Cisco
device as follows :
 
Router#sh tcp brief
TCB       Local Address           Foreign Address        (state)
637202B8  10.0.0.19.12298       172.16.112.29.49       ESTAB
6371C978  10.0.0.19.12238       172.16.112.29.49       ESTAB
636CB228  10.0.0.19.12081       172.16.112.29.49       CLOSEWAIT
