Visualize Single Termination Circuits #38

Open darcynz opened 4 years ago

Not sure of the best way to do this, but It would be great if you could visualize A and Z separately on a map with perhaps the circuit ID.

Most of our sites have circuits that are not point to point (for example a direct internet link or IP/VPN). Because they don't connect to another device you can can't yet see the visualization of the circuit.

Also when you search a site you don't see the circuit unless you also search the head end.

By being able to visualize both A and Z separately you would cover both use cases whilst also enriching the Site Map with circuit data.

Semi related... Whilst using circuits,I believe I've hit the issue experience in issue #10 - Circuit terminations aren't displaying . Although not exactly the same.

For me It displays a generic loading error. And i can get it to load by including every device type that the circuit is looking for. EG if a circuit is between a router and a switch it will only load if the switch type is included. Normally it would just ignore it and not display that circuit connection.
