Description

There was some recent discussion in NetworkToCode about how to get all interfaces from a VC via the API. Looking into it, looks like it would be relatively easy to add virtual_chassis and virtual_chassis_id to the InterfaceFilter which would then build an Interface queryset based on all VC member devices.

Started digging into this, and it is already implemented via the device and device_id fields when the device is the master of the VC
