Originally created by @alehaa on GitHub (Sep 4, 2024).

NetBox version

v4.0.10

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Add abstract model dcim.models.PathEndpoint to circuits.models.CircuitTermination and adjust related views accordingly.

Use case

NetBox already allows to document transit dark fiber that does not touch any device but is patched through the local network, e.g. to connect two customer sites. This means that a circuit is attached at both ends of the path, so this connection is not traced and no CablePath object is created. However, it would be very useful to know the path this connection takes, especially if it is patched across different sites.

Database changes

Using dcim.models.PathEndpoint adds an internal field to the CircuitTermination model. No explicit changes are added.

External dependencies

None

Unfortunately this would require fundamental changes to the way cable tracing works globally, and would result in breaking established behavior. We're going to decline this FR for now but may reconsider this in the future.
