APTools is a utility that queries ARP Tables and Content-Addressable Memory (CAM) for MAC Address ranges associated with 802.11b Access Points. It will also utilize Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) if available.

NIDS (Network Intrusion Detection System) named Blocker, based upon a open source NIDS (watcher). The watcher was modified to recognize more attacks, generate access lists to Cisco routers to automatically block attacks.

CCSAT (Cisco Configuration Security Auditing Tool) is a tool for automated audit of configuration security of large numbers of Cisco routers and switches.
CDPR is used to decode a Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) packet, by default it will report the device ID, the IP Address (of the device), and the port number that the machine is connected to. Optionally it will decode the entire CDP packet.
CEPS, the Cisco Enterprise Print System, is a collection of tools and utilities designed to work together to create a highly scalable, robust printing environment for a medium to large corporation.

NEye (Network Eye) is an Open Source NetFlow collector working on Unix systems which is capable of receiving flows from Cisco Routers (but not only) and store them in ASCII, in SQLite databases or in full blown MySQL databases. It's written in C language, making use of POSIX threads if available (thus scalable) and is Open Source (licensed under BITGPL). Gilberto welcomes testing/feedback for NEye.
The NMIS (Network Management Information System) site provides a GPL project that is a Cisco oriented fault and performance management system. It provides many capabilities, including interface performance, CPU, Memory, and basic inventory.

Tools developed for various network management tasks in a carrier environment. They are designed to work with various Cisco IOS devices, including ATM switches (LS1010, MSR8540), MPLS and legacy routers. The functionality of the tools includes: device inventory listings; ATM: PNNI topology reports, complete VCC reference, VCC status report, VCC tracking tool; MPLS: TDP/LDP/IS-IS topology reports, VRF inventory reports; Cisco72XX bandwidth points analysis.
