Hi,

I've previously used a great free network discovery / management tool called 
NeDi ( http://nedi.ch ) - supports multiple vendors, discovers network kit and 
hosts on the network, integrates with Cacti - really rich feature set. Note 
that I have not used it with Juniper kit, but it should support at least some 
of it. It discovers the network based on snmp and lldp, starting from the 
default gw - or you can add network kit manually.

Again it might be another tool that doesn't handle Juniper MIBs too well, but I 
think it's worth a shot.

Also, if you use mostly DHCP and you have access / control over your DHCP 
infrastructure, you can track your hosts using DHCP snooping and option 82 - 
the forwarding kit will tell your DHCP server what each client is physically 
connected to (device, interface). Even commercial IPAM systems often use ISC 
dhcpd in the background so it should be possible to get this working even if 
the ipam tool doesn't directly support this.

Regards,
Wojciech
