possible in a theoretical sense.

Is it possible that puppet could be modified to be used to manage
switches that have a command line based interface?

I think there's a lot of value in configuration management system for
network stuff. Though I don't think puppet is a good fit. Puppet has
lots of types that don't really make sense in that context.

http://www.netomata.com is the most recent thing I've seen in this
space. I'm not sure how far along they are.

I posted a similar question on sage-au just after my puppet post. Someone pointed me to http://www.netomata.com. While it looks like it has a little way to go, it looks so good that it deflated my enthusiasm for using puppet for this. Naturally TMTOWTDI.
