 I'm looking for a tool to automatically document our network topology, 
 including CDP information, spanning-tree, vlans, mac addresses, IPv4 and IPv6 
 and so on. And Netdot looks very promising!

We use it, for discovery, IP-range management and DNS.

Main reason: In contrast to dozens of other systems, this one supports
IPv6.

I've been using nedi[1] for quite some time now and found it really
useful to automatically discover what's going on in a Cisco network.

This tool is mostly meant for gathering data like interface status,
VLANs, ARP and MAC tables, configurations and so on. You give it a SNMP
community, SSH access to your devices and let it fill its database
automatically. It is not really meant to be an authoritative source of
data like an IP address management tool or so.

I would have loved to have its author presenting at on of the previous
swinog edition but it unfortunately didn't happened. Perhaps next time
if there's enough interest.

Cheers,

François
