NetBox version

v4.3.3

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

Sorry, I couldn't really think of a suitable title! - I did search to see if this had already been submitted, but don't believe it has.

Essentially what has griped me for a while now is when I'm going to add in a new IP Prefix and selecting a VLAN, I'd like to be able to create the VLAN without leaving the Create Prefix screen. Currently, I have to open a new tab to then create the VLAN. (You may not realise the VLAN doesn't exist already).

Use case

I believe this would help streamline using Netbox and provide a more efficient use. For example, regardless of where you are in the system, if you need to add something quick to what you're adding currently, you'd be able to do it from where you are.

Example:

Database changes

I'm fairly certain this has been asked before but I can't find the issue.
