if the full trace would now be feasible, what about summing the power usage like requested in #3377? maybe this could be realized now much more easily, too?

To not clutter the interface type section "Ethernet (fixed)" a new section "Backplane" or "Ethernet (Backplane)" could be added, too. But I'll leave this open for discussion.

you mean to group those new interfaces types under "Backplane (802.3ap)" or do you mean to merge all interface types to a single "802.3ap" type?If yes, I'd vote for the...

> Sorry, yes, I was referring to the group. We could maybe call it "Backplane (802.3ap)" to better differentiate from the general Ethernet types. Sounds good to me 👍 I'll...

just a quick update. I'm still interested in implementing this and have planned this for next week

Need to do some checks and will submit the PR tomorrow. Thx for your patience

This is needed pretty much. We're assigning several hundreds of transceivers to interfaces. They all have custom fields for e.g. the programmed compatibility. Having to recreate all that data when...
