Add optional Site field to WirelessLAN model
NetBox version
v3.3.5
Feature type
Data model extension
Proposed functionality
Add an optional ForeignKey
field pointing to Site
for the WirelessLAN
model.
Also show the Site
relation in the various GUI components where applicable: WirelessLAN detail & list views (as column and filter), the Site detail page "Related Objects" table, etc.
Use case
With more than a few SSIDs in NetBox it can be a challenge to identify where exactly a WLAN resides without digging into the related VLAN information, or the related interface/device attachments.
Additionally, given that VLAN<->site membership is optional, and a WLAN may be documented without physical interface relationships, it creates more possible confusion. Having the Site relationship be clearly & directly established with the WirelessLAN would improve the documentation capabilities vastly.
