Besides documenting config changes, can rancid perform a tftp backup of router / switch startup configs, or integrate with some other software to pull down the config file if a change is detected?

Anybody familiar with (freeware/shareware) tools for a network

Are there other utilities around that would scan the collected
configurations and read relevant info (descriptions, ip add, link
bandwidth etc)?

I use OpenNMS, which is a full bore network management system.  Has great
autodiscovery, and reads what it needs to know via SNMP. Can do layer 2 link
detections and paths.

Doesn't pull in configs; rancid does that quite well.
