NetBox version

v4.2.4

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

When you click the plus button to add a new MAC address to an interface, there should be a checkbox for "make this the primary MAC for the interface" on this page.
This would be similar to the checkbox for selecting the Primary IP when adding a new IP Address.

Use case

Currently, this requires too many clicks. You have to first create the MAC, then edit the interface and assign the Primary MAC. It was easier before the 4.2 update.
