layer 2 traceroute

hi all,

does anyone know any layer 2 traceroute utility for linux/windows? i am running cable net using layer 2 switches and want to findout the mac addresses of each switch(unmanageable). so that if any line has problem i can identify the problematic switch by using MAC ping.

regards,
ASAD

consult the manufacturer of those switches. something like that would have to be proprietary.

contact me at my yahoo id astro_sutradhar

Something like that, I beleive would have to be managed, or at least have snmp query capabilities.
