What information is displayed with the show cdp neighbor command?

Cisco IOS' (depending how recent they are) send out Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) announcements on SNAP-header supporting interfaces: Ethernet, ATM, or Frame Relay.

How would you create your own anonymous proxy server?

Personally I would make an application with 2 sockets. you have one socket listening on port 125. you then set your browser settings to the IP address on which the proxy application is running. Then u make another socket which will read the HTTP headers... get the host... connect to them on port 80 and pass the information back to the browser through the first socket. so what ur doing essentially is getting the data from one socket storing it in a var and sending it off through the other socket. u'd have to store the data in bytes as opposed to a string because pictures and other mediawill contain byte information.
