This NetJSON looks pretty good. Should be pretty easy to rename some fields to conform to it. Looks like we could get some nice visualizations for free if we do this: https://github.com/netjson/netjsongraph.js

We'll have to add some other info to the data as well though to support the full functionality of the routers.

Have you guys looked at http://netjson.org/ ?

There are a few visualizers implemented already:
