Proposed Changes

To help guard against HTTP Host header attacks, NetBox will not permit access to the server via any other hostnames (or IPs). But when visiting that link, it says "This document is for an insecure version of Django that is no longer supported. Please upgrade to a newer release!" There are several other links like this as well. This ticket is to fix that.

And instead of referencing specific Django versions in the documentation, this ticket will use the …/en/stable/… in the URL. This is so that these links won’t need to get changed in the future and remain consistent.
