NetBox version

v4.1.6

Feature type

Data model extension

Triage priority

N/A

Proposed functionality

I would like to request that 1000Base-LX be added as an interface type in the "Ethernet (fixed)" category, to support legacy devices with fixed (non-modular) fibre interfaces.

Use case

We deal with some legacy telco devices and media converters that have fixed 1000Base-LX fibre interfaces (i.e. not SFP or any other kind of modular interface).

Database changes

This would not be a data model extension tbc, it just needs an entry to be added to the appropriate section of InterfaceTypeChoices.
