I have used graphviz and .dot files manually populated from CSV exports in the past with pretty good results. https://osl.uoregon.edu/redmine/projects/netdot/wiki , http://www.graphviz.org/Documentation/dotguide.pdf

I had a go at mashing up netdot w/ some graphs generated by parsing the XML versions of Juniper configs pulled by RANCID. It did not go especially well :) I got the impression netdot was better suited to mapping fairly small networks. Mapping our "whole" network made a huge output with low readability. -- Michael
