Using Foreman as CMDB

Everyone might roll their eyes at me for this, but I'm evaluating using The
Foreman not just as an ENC and "source of truth", but also towards an
organizational CMDB. I'd like to be able to associate network gear with it
as well (switches, firewalls, load balancers) - has anybody done this? I
created some "unmanaged" resources, but it seems quite cludgy. Is there a
plugin available?

To my knowledge*, there is no CMDB plugin for Foreman as yet. If that's
something you're considering writing, hop over to the -dev mailing list and
lets talk more :slight_smile:

(* which is of course incomplete - please correct me if you know of one!)
