I'd look at routing, ARP, CAM, & CEF.  I wouldn't recommend  
portscanning, as a) you don't know what to scan, b) you might cause  
problems, and c) you may have devices with no IP addresses at all.

For open-source NMS, look at Nagios, OpenNMS, et. al.  In terms of  
CiscoWorks, perhaps someone more familiar with it can comment.
