('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Yes, I do know the range of IP addresses on the inside. I even could gain access to the internal network without bypassing the firewall if I really wanted, but as I am trying to replicate a hacker's approach, I would like to enumerate as much information as possible without using my prior knowledge of the network.

I do not believe that the filtering rules in place on the firewall are very good, this is simply assumed based upon other security practices in place. If the firewall does not block RCF1918 addresses, would it be possible at all to firewalk information regarding the internal network? Thanks in advance as you've been very helpful in my research thus far.
