Originally created by @mikygee on GitHub (Sep 7, 2024).

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.1.0

Python Version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

Create 2 platformes such as
FortiOS v7.0.9
FortiOS v7.0.15

Device > Device > Edit a device
Check the list platform in Device

Expected Behavior

FortiOS v7.0.15 should be inferior to v7.0.9

This is a typical problem because when comparing 15 and 9, the first caracter 1 is evaluated, and indeed 1 is inferior to 9.
But numbers should be evaluated together, 15 should be evaluated not 1 compared to 9 and then 5 compared to a space.

Observed Behavior

FortiOS v7.0.15 is superior to v7.0.9

This is alphabetical ordering: The string v7.0.15 comes before v7.0.9 because 1 comes before 9. What you're after is natural ordering. This is supported for certain models in NetBox currently but not for platforms. Please see #11279 for further discussion.
