Issue type

[x] Feature request
[ ] Bug report
[ ] Documentation

Environment

  • Python version: 2.7.5
  • NetBox version: 2.3-develop

Description

A detailed description of the proposed functionality

Add a filter to the dcim.devices API to filter for rack postion.

A use case for the new feature

We are currently filling netbox with data from our DC with data from various sources. From one source we get info about asset data, from another on system configs. The only way to identify a device is most of the time by rack + eleavation, hostnames do not match unfortunately across tools. Therefore this filter in the API would be needed to match a device by rack & elevation.

A rough description of any necessary changes to the database schema

Small code modification is needed to netbox/netbox/dcim/filters.py. If wanted I can create a pull request for it.

Any relevant third-party libraries which would be needed

none
