stormdogOk, help me out here, fellow geeks.
I have four Contivity network appliances that I want to sell on Ebay. I need to make sure that all of their configuration data is wiped first. A friend on the server team at work tells me that if you can connect to them through HTTP with a browser, there's an easy to run command that will clear them out and reset them to factory config.
However, I have no idea what IP address they are currently set with, or their subnet mask, or anything like that. If you needed to find a mystery box that was plugged into your physical network, but you had no idea what subnet or address it was using, how would you do it? Is there a way?
Thanks!

moiracoon tells me that she and her fellow bead and button show attendees are not being allowed to leave the convention center right now because the weather outside is so bad. Here in Kenosha, we've just had a major temperature drop and the rain is starting to come down. I'm thinking that I'm going to pass on driving up to the gathering in Milwaukee. The barbecue sounds likely to be rained out anyway. Plus, for some reason, I'm feeling more than a little bit tired and don't want to find myself getting really sleepy an hour away from home. *yawns* Instead, I'm going to organize here a little more.
