Looking up hostname from URL

I have a task of locating a server based off of URL



So what my thought process is would be to first find the IP address


ping url.com



Then if it is a Windows server, try and utilize


nbtstat -A ip.address or nbtstat -a computername



Tried


tracert url.com


then connected to last hop/switch


sh arp | incl ip.address


sh mac-address-table address mac.address (may want to lookup mac address for vendor)


if it shows up on a trunk or multiple ports, see if its going to another switch


sh cdp nei (look for the port that the sh mac-address-table address result included)



Also tried


nslookup ip.address



Also downloaded nmap and tried os detection but it couldn't identify the mac address


nmap -sVC -O -T4 url.com



Anyone have any other idea's for looking up information for a server in an intranet (internal LAN)
