Take a look at Netdisco. I seem to remember it's a little tricky to set up on CentOS but I wouldn't live without it now.

"A little tricky"?

Last time I looked at it, I described the installation process as only slightly less complicated than building a Saturn-V rocket out of 1960's era TV parts.

I'll repeat my recommendation for OpenNMS. Getting started is as easy as 'yum install' (almost...). And it can do about anything you'd want in a monitoring system - including matching up those switch ports with the connected devices.
