JSF :: Building Web Frontend For Command-Line-Based Software

The goal of this software is to provide a web interface which must be able to manage the Quagga routing daemon. For those who don't know Quagga, the only interface it provides the user is its built-in cli. My project must convert web events to commands and vice-versa. how I'm going to maintain quagga's configuration state synchronized with JSF's managed beans. The example below shows the commands one must run on quagga's cli in order to add a BGP neighbor:

neighbor 10.0.0.1 remote-as 65535
neighbor 10.0.0.1 description "Just a Test"
neighbor 10.0.0.1 next-hop-self
neighbor 10.0.0.1 soft-reconfiguration inbound
write memory

In order to represent this piece of information in my project, I was thinking about mapping this to a class:

public class BGPNeighbor {
private String ip_address;
private Integer asn;
private Boolean next_hop_self;
private Boolean inbound_soft_reconfiguration;
}

With this I would parse the information from Quagga's configuration and map this to classes in my software. I think it's a lot easier to do with database-based software, the problem with this project is that it's not completely database oriented. The information must be fetched from the network, parsed, converted to classes and then they would be available to JSF as managed beans. Any alteration to this classes must be converted to quagga cli commands which must be executed through the network again (telnet).
