Thanks for your interest in improving NetBox.
The functionality you propose already exists. This is just a case of the workflow for populating a bridge working in a way that differs from your expectation.
To model a multiaccess bridged segment, first create a virtual interface (e.g. br0
) of type Bridge. Then, in a separate step, set the Bridged interface attribute of each member physical interface (e.g. eth0
, eth1
...) to the virtual bridge interface previously created. Now if you visit the details of br0
you'll see eth0
and eth1
listed under the Bridge Interfaces heading.
This should really be documented.
A "How do I document xxx" section in the docs would be really cool
NetBox version
v3.7.5
Feature type
Data model extension
Proposed functionality
I want to be able to assign multiple physical interfaces to a bridge interface
Use case
I have a MikroTik Router. You allow switching between groups by creating a bridge. This bridge get the physical ports assigned to it. I want to be able to replicate this in NetBox so I can implement this with my automation.
Database changes
The "Bridged Interface" field would need to be turned into a list.
