I am curious as to how others are documenting their network; both
visually and configurations.

Is there any a software offers a database with web-based front end that
can document in a very details.

Most people I know use a wiki for documentation and rancid for
configuration management. If you want to access your configurations wia
web you can use rancid + webcvs. 

There are also several database based tools for ip address
management. Check the list archives for details.
