Since ARM is mostly in the embedded arena, I would expect the original
question was for something in the 'router/switch/wired-refrigerator'
arena. I do not know what the market size of an embedded scanner is in
comparison to other systems beyond having a low cost/low power system
that could distribute the scanning more. The speed of the ARM in
combination with the memory/procession power needed to do large scale
scanning would be the limiting factor I could see in implementing such
a 'tool'.
