Thanks Denis. So,this is what I am planning.

An application; I was thinking of writing it up in java 'coz I ain't that
good in python. It could be accessed either via a web browser or an app
could be downloaded to a desktop.
Brief set of functionalities...
1. A db backend to store information retrieved from devices in the network.
(MySQL may be)
2. Add devices to it for management (eg: switch, storage array, server)
3. Perform tasks on these devices. (eg: create, delete, modify logical
objects)
