NetBox version

v4.1.1

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Netbox currently doesn't have an option for Zigbee other IEEE 802.15.4 based RF interfaces.

I would like to try my hand at adding this functionality.

Use case

Outside of Wi-Fi versions, only Bluetooth and "Other" exist. The 802.15.4 stack is becoming more and more relevant and I would like to see it as an option for my Enterprise Access Points. It is already a feature that is built in to current generation Enterprise Access Points.

Database changes

I don't believe that this will require any database changes, just an extension of the existing standards already in place.

External dependencies

none
