NetBox version

v4.2.6

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

The rendered config of a device already can be downloaded using a button. I propose adding a "copy to clipboard" button as the config context already implements.

Use case

When first provisioning a switch, this is most often done through a serial console connection. The proposed button would simplify the process by eliminating the need to select the necessary lines (and accidentally miss some). Users would simply click the button and paste the contents into their terminal.

Database changes

None.

External dependencies

None.
