📄 Description

Fixes: #4831

  • For NAPALM connection, uses Python socket library to attempt to resolve a name to IP address when a primary IP address is not defined.
  • Name resolution must be done without adding any suffixes to the name such as: rtr01 would be supplied back to name resolution. If rtr01 does not resolve to anything on the NetBox host, no translation will be found.
    • If hosts exist in *.infra.example.com, but the host can only lookup against *.example.com, then the name resolution will fail
  • Remaps IP address to use "host" for the name to indicate could be an IP address or could be a device name
