When attempting to add interfaces:

xe-[0-1]/[0-3]/0

Results in a modal and server error which kicks me back to the homepage

There was a problem with your request. This error has been logged and administrative staff have been notified. Please return to the home page and try again.

Currently, when searching for a prefix, the root of the hierarchy is returned. Search results should automatically be expanded to show all matching parent prefixes.

Line 356:

messages.success(request, "Added {} compontent(s) to {}".format(len(component_templates), devicetype))

compontent -> component

Need to have a banner for certain requirements and was wondering if one can be configured or a feature can be added for it.

We need to come up with a better way of sorting arbitrary interface IDs. The current approach works well for simple cases (e.g. formats Gi0/1 and xe-0/0/1) but falls apart when faced with more exotic IDs, such as Junos' channelized interfaces (e.g. xe-0/0/33:[0-3]).

Hi There,

When viewing like we do
Site -> Rack Group -> Rack -> Device

The rack group is not visible in the site view.

I suggest to display a table which would show either a rack group if specified and if site does not have any specified rack groups but has racks then show listing of racks for the site.

This could be below the comments/topology boxes.

Thanks
Shaun

Currently, a user can create duplicate prefixes and IP addresses within a VRF (or the global table). A warning is displayed when duplicate objects are found, but no action is otherwise taken.

It should be fairly easy to implement a configuration option to disallow a user from creating duplicate prefixes or IP addresses within a VRF.

Currently, NetBox does not support any concept of physical cable plant installations. We can connect one interface to another, but there is no way too associate that connection with information about the physical path taken by the cabling.

Ideally, NetBox should support the construction of physical cable paths to be associated with data (and perhaps console) connections. This would entail the tracking of individual path panels and cables, as well as the ability to support bundles of cabling (e.g. MPO fiber trunks).

The database schema necessary to support this feature will take quite a bit of thought. However, once that schema has been devised and agreed upon, it should be relatively easy to incorporate in NetBox.

I'd like to see some improvements to the utilization measurements.

1. The utilization bar should be shown not only under aggregate but under each Prefix and Child Prefix.
   This helps with the fact that currently the aggregate view will show 100% if you have completely subnetted out that aggregate prefix. This is nice but its not a real accurate representation of that utilization.
2. I'd like to see an option where you could change the above to either show the utilization based off of the aggregate utilization of the prefixes rather than if you have subnetted the aggregate.

This can be annoying if you make an aggregate prefix called 192.168.0.0/21. Carve up two prefixes 192.168.0.0/22 and 192.168.4.0/22 because one will be for SITE1 and the other for SITE2. Mark those both containers. Now, my /21 shows 100% utilization because I've made containers to contain my child prefixes of 192.168.0.0/24 and 192.168.4.0/24, etc.

I have a /20 prefix with 16 child prefixes underneath

When I view my prefix table this /20 shows a caret that should expand to show me my 16 /24's (the screenshots show this is how it should work)

In both the latest Chrome and Safari I am not able to expand the view by clicking the caret

I'm running netbox in a dev VPS right now and have entered a sizable amount of data.

I'm going to want to move this to a production server and would really prefer not to have multiple exports (not sure if everything exports?)

Adding a few screenshots which showcase the NetBox front end might help to quickly demonstrate what it is and encourage new users to try it out. These should be taken from a demo instance to avoid capturing any real-world data.

Create a device for example something that has 5RU in height and you add it to a rack.

Say for example you assigned the device RU 10-15 but after adding the device you realise it should have been RU11-16.

If you then want to move this device up 1RU in the rack you have to move the device completely out of the 5RU allocated for the device. Save changes then go back and edit the device and move it to the correct RU location.

This does not work when the rack is near full - you would have to remove the device and then re-allocate the device to the rack.

Let's say I add a /18 prefix and assign it's status as container.

Now let's say I want to add the 64 /24 child prefixes under it.

Could there be an option when adding a child prefix to:

(radio option) enter manually

(radio option) subnet container prefix into (drop down)[30,29,28,27,26,25,24]'s

Where "enter manually" is the current system in place.

This would allow a much quicker workflow for subnetting and breaking up IP space

I've added a device type for one of my edge routers and added all the line card ports.

When I add the actual device and associate it to the device type I am left needing to define all the ports again.

What is the purpose of populating ports on the device type if I'll need to redefine the ports when creating the device?

I presumed device type was a template such that when associating it to an actual device the interfaces would be there by default?

Thanks =)

Here is an example of how I might want to extend Netbox - to generate DNS records.

• for each IPAM address entry, add a "DNS name" field
• use this data to export zone files (both forward and reverse)
• this requires:
  • adding a new column to ipam_ipaddress
  • corresponding new data entry field in IP Address add/edit/import
  • a separate web area for other DNS operations (e.g. export zone file, adding other DNS records like MX and CNAME)
  • optional triggers for provisioning (e.g. queue list of DNS changes to push)

However, making this part of Netbox core might not suit how everyone wants to manage their DNS. So would it be better instead for Netbox to support such extensions as plugins, so they remain optional?

The issue of modifying the ipam_ipaddress table can be dealt with by having a separate linked table, but the DNS code would still need some way to hook into the UI. At simplest, the DNS plugin could ask for a "DNS" button to appear on the IP address page, and that would link to a separate page or pop-up.

I can see other possible plugins to:

• Auto-populate serial number, interfaces and IP addresses from SNMP queries
• Connect to iKVM, serial console; control power via PDU; control console and power via IPMI
• Manage VMs via ESXi, Openstack, Ganeti etc
• Configure monitoring
• Collect interface stats, ARP tables, bridge forwarding tables
• Record fibre strands and cables

These probably belong in separate projects, given the large number of different devices which need to be supported - but they will still want to integrate into the UI somehow.

P.S. If there is a discussion list please point me at it :-)

Netbox 66a16dd under Ubuntu 14.04

What I did was:

• Create a device with interface 1.2.3.4/24
• Create an aggregate 1.2.3.0/24
• Create a prefix 1.2.3.0/24
• Create an aggregate 1.0.0.0/8

When I browse to the outer aggregate http://x.x.x.x:8000/ipam/aggregates/2/ (1.0.0.0/8) it shows the "child prefixes" inside it, including 1.2.3.0/24 "active". But when I click on this, which takes me to http://x.x.x.x:8000/ipam/prefixes/1/, I get a 500 "Server error"

No error is shown in the console output apart from:

[28/Jun/2016 09:35:28] "GET /ipam/prefixes/1/ HTTP/1.1" 500 1026

But after setting DEBUG = True in configuration.py, I get this:

Internal Server Error: /ipam/prefixes/1/
Traceback (most recent call last):

    (self.model._meta.object_name, num)
MultipleObjectsReturned: get() returned more than one Aggregate -- it returned 2!

Possibly the problem is that I can't have both an aggregate and a prefix which are the same (but then Netbox should stop me getting into this situation in the first place?)

Issue 2: I tried to delete the aggregate 1.2.3.0/24, but what it actually did was to delete the prefix! Then I deleted the aggregate, then recreated the prefix, and it was OK.

Issue 3: given that I still have an aggregate 1.0.0.0/8 it now doesn't allow me to create an aggregate 1.2.3.0/24 again: it says "1.2.3.0/24 is already covered by an existing aggregate (1.0.0.0/8)"

This may be true, but if one aggregate is not allowed to contain another aggregate, this needs to be enforced in the opposite direction too (i.e. it allowed me to create aggregate 1.0.0.0/8 after creating aggregate 1.2.3.0/24, but not the other way round)

This leads onto:

Issue 4: it should be made clearer in the documentation about whether aggregates can be nested, and/or prefixes can be nested.

Based on experimentation, it looks like prefixes can be nested, but aggregates cannot / should not, correct?

For example: I may have 192.0.0.0/22 from my registry, but I divide that up to 192.0.0.0/24 for data centre 1 and 192.0.1.0/24 for data centre 2, and then from within those ranges I allocate subnets for each data centre. So I believe the correct approach in Netbox is to create an aggregate 192.0.0.0/22, prefixes 192.0.0.0/24 and 192.0.1.0/24, and child prefixes within those prefixes to represent the actual subnets on router interfaces - is that right?

When on the add device page.

http://XXX/dcim/devices/add/

It would be beneficial to be able to preview the rack itself showing available placement after selecting the rack from the drop down list.

It would also be great once selected the RU location to show the device pending placement location in the rack being shown and then only committing to that location once it has been saved.

Let's set one up using Travis so we can get some basic sanity checks running on each push.

The Prefix Import functionality does not currently accept the VLAN field

Can we please have a button that allows you to create a new rack while in the rack group view.

Saves exiting that view itself.

Thanks

the css override for "container" set to:

.container {
    width: 1340px;
}

(base.css line 11)

...causes overflow issues on smaller screens, namely my 13" macbook pro and commenting this out allows the container content inside .wrapper to behave much better automatically but doesnt address the header and footer

changing .container to .container-fluid in the navbar, footer and wrapper makes everything work nicely

Currently, space within a rack can only be either unoccupied or occupied (having been consumed by a device). It would be helpful to allow users to reserve arbitrary swaths of rack space with a comment indicating its intended use. This could also be used to designate unallocated rack space (for instance, because the rack has been damaged).

Example: When a user deletes a device, all of the interfaces which belong to that device are deleted as well. The total number of object deletions is being recorded in the activity log (rather than just the number of devices which were deleted).

It is possible to create a rack, install a device in the top unit of that rack, and then reduce the rack's height so that the device cannot exist. This results in a server error.

Currently, after performing a bulk action such as adding an interface to a set of devices, the user is redirected back to the default device list, and must re-apply any filters to return the original set of objects.

Instead, the user should be redirected to the previous list view with all its associated filters already applied.

In our setup a central function of an ipam system is to handle the reservation of free ip addresses and subnets, this is crucial for fully automated server provisioning workflows. So please have a look at the ip reservation functions of tools like phpipam and especially nipap and generously steal concepts from them and adapt them accordingly ;)

Hi There,

We use phpipam for all our ip / vlan / dns management.

It would be great if we could link the systems together so we can provision from netbox and have it talk back to phpipam to link both systems together.

This would allow for the following to take place as an example;

1. Create customer in rack space
2. Assign device to rack space.
3. Allocate IP / Subnet / Vlan to device which makes a call back to phpipam API
4. Phpipam then allocates the subnet and it has connections from there to manage DNS so it would if setup like ours will auto provision PTR records etc for that device.

A scenario like this would allow for primary management to be handled by netbox rather than phpipam with netbox having more control and functionality other than being (for how we are using it) an asset system at the moment.

Fantastic what you have done - really great project :)

Regards
Shaun

Tried to add device type for Supermicro 1028U-TNRTP+ server, which generates a slug name of the same in lowercase, but '+' is not a valid character in that field and should be trimmed.

I'm trying to install Netbox on a minimal Centos 7 system and having some issues when I go to launch the development instance. It launches and says no issues were identified however it throws a 'Couldn't import dot_parser, loading of dot files will not be possible.' error. When I browse to the website, I get a Bad Request (400) error.

In order to get to this point, I had to install additional dependencies such as gcc, openssl-devel, and postgresql-devel at which point I got past pip install section. Not sure what to troubleshoot at this point.

Proposal for discussion: that the same secret can be associated with multiple devices; and that secrets are versioned.

Current: (device, secret role, username, secret)

router1,SNMP community,,abc123
router2,SNMP community,,abc123
router3,SNMP community,,def456
ups1,SNMP community,,p@ssw0rd

Proposed: (device, secret role, username, secret class, secret version)

router1,SNMP community,,SNMP core,1
router2,SNMP community,,SNMP core,1
router3,SNMP community,,SNMP core,2
ups1,SNMP community,,SNMP UPS,1

Secrets: (class, version, secret, timestamp, comment)

SNMP core,1,abc123,20160112,Initial version
SNMP core,2,def456,20160628,Rotated after staff change
SNMP UPS,1,p@ssw0rd,20160112,Initial version

Secret classes can have an overall description:

SNMP core,Community for core routers
SNMP UPS,Community for vendor-managed UPS equipment

This would mean:

• fewer encrypted items stored in the database
• the ability to add a new device and select from existing secrets in a drop-down menu, without having to type in the secret itself each time
• easier to report on which devices are using out-of-date secrets
• GPG-encrypted secrets could be used, eliminating the need to handle private keys in the browser (aside: could also export them to a passwordstore filetree)

Since secrets are shared they should be immutable, at least if in use by more than one device. To rotate a password you would create a new version of the secret and then assign the new version to each device as you update it. This could be offered as a bulk-change operation in the GUI.

The above design allows the same secret to be used for any role, which is most flexible, but alternatively each secret class could be linked to a single role (to restrict the drop-down choices to relevant ones only)

Backwards-compatibility: may need to allow both per-device and shared secrets. May also be helpful when some oddball devices have ad-hoc passwords.

not sure if this is by design or a bug - but I am unable to connect devices together that are not in the same location.

Also on the circuits management stuff - it would be good if you could have an A-Port and a B-Port - as we have several leased lines that go between facilities

This project is looking so good!

I'd love the option for LDAP authentication built in (With permissions etc). I'm sure many others will too.
This would make it more appealing for larger organisations.

Thanks,

Netbox 66a16dd under Ubuntu 14.04, built according to getting-started.md

I tried to create a secret for a device. It told me I needed to create a user key and navigated me to that place. So I generated a user key within the browser, and copy-pasted the private key to a local file.

I then tried again to add a secret to a device. It prompted me to paste my private key into the web interface - I did so.

But from then on, attempting to add a secret to a device just says:

"Invalid RSA key. Please ensure that your key is in PEM (base64) format."

I have tried:

• Logging out and logging back in
• Quitting and restarting the browser (Chrome under OSX)
• Regenerating and re-activating my user key

I have never been prompted to paste my private key in again, but I still get the "Invalid RSA key" message. Inspecting the HTML page shows that the private key is in a hidden form variable. I'm not sure how this is being kept "sticky", but at very least logging out should clear it and require it to be re-entered when required.

Side issue: I would be a lot happier if this used GPG keys, not RSA keys. GPG is robustly-designed, whereas it's very easy to make an insecure system from low-level crypto primitives. I'm particularly unhappy about private keys being constantly pasted back-and-forth between web client and server.

GPG allows the same document to be encrypted for multiple recipients: effectively there is no global "master key" but rather each document contains its own session key, encrypted with multiple public keys.

This in turn means that it would be unnecessary to provide your private key into the web interface when adding a new device secret.

Adding new device with 1.5U will fail due to rounding up or down.

Technically this isn't a big deal, because I'd generally round up.

When Adding a rack to a site - I edit the friendly org name and it fails.

There was a problem with your request. This error has been logged and administrative staff have been notified. Please return to the home page and try again.

Do you guys need to translate documentation or any other stuff in other languages? I'll be willing to do spanish.

Under 'Devices' -> 'Import Devices', can you please have a field for height type.
This would drastically reduce my time in manually having to go into each device and specify the height of each device.
Currently importing 1000's of devices and without this, it is going to be a time-consuming process.

got to say a very good job! Thanks again for taking the time to make this.

When trying to use the text box for CSV to import racks I get:

Record 1 (group): Invalid rack group (site01 - group01)

So I manually added a single rack to the group, exported it, then tried re-importing it only to face the same issue.

site01,group01,r00,site01.r00,42

First off, my apologies this isn't in a pull request

1. "ALLOWED_HOSTS"

I had to add 127.0.0.1 as nginx is calling it for the proxy

2. gunicorn Configuration

You may want to elude to the command path needing to be checked, my path was sans local:

command = '/usr/bin/gunicorn'

To duplicate, go to:

/dcim/racks/

...and check the box that selects all entries.

I have two pages of rack entries if that makes a difference

For an APC 0U strip with 24 outlets am I guessing correctly that customer assignable outlets are just that, "Power outlets" and that the "power port" would be the breaker the PDU is interlocked with?

If you have a slack channel or another way you wish to handle general discussion versus opening issues I'm all ears.

Thanks =)

It would be nice to be able to duplicate items where in only the name or other small bit of information is different.

Use case, I have a few different 0U PDU's all with 24 ports, being able to dupe them would be nice

Power Connections feels like an afterthought right now. There is no interface to add a PDU with a # of outlets, but you can import this information.

I think there should be a separate Power tab that is tied back to the individual rack. This would help greatly with tracking power circuits per rack (30A phase, etc) and their IDs.

Hi There,

If you try to edit a rack after it has been created - even without making a change and just hitting the save button we get the following error on the screen

The current object list allows the user to select only the objects displayed on the current page, which is usually a subset of the total list matching the user's query. In order to apply a change to a number of objects greater than the pagination limit, the user needs to apply the change once per page in the query.

We should implement an option to select all of the objects returned by the user's query regardless of whether they are displayed on the current page.

Some dependencies currently block this, but having a branch ready to go when those clear would be nice.

Many entities which might use NetBox, particularly service providers, manage networks for many different customers. Currently, NetBox does not have any concept of distinct customers or organizations. This makes it very difficult to track which devices and other resources belong to which customer.

It should be fairly easy to extend NetBox's schema to include a Tenant object. Devices, Prefixes, and other objects could then optionally be associated with a Tenant via a ForeignKey field to track multitenant installations.
