Issue type

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

Environment

  • Python version: 2.7.10
  • NetBox version: 2.2.7

Description

Steps to reproduce:

  • Use the API to attach a circuit to a LAG interface
  • Try to update the interface
    => Virtual and wireless interfaces cannot be connected to another interface or circuit. Disconnect the interface or choose a suitable form factor.

Expected behaviour:
LAGs should be allowed to have circuits terminated on, as certain circuits, such as L3 circuits with transit providers can be terminated and identified by a service id that is specific to the aggregated link.

A circuit is a physical link and must be connected to a physical interface. While you may have a service delivered via an aggregated set of physical links, each of those is a separate circuit with its own ID.

If that's the case, then we should de-aggregate the L2 and L3 termination on circuits, and allow for the L3 termination of a circuit to land on a lag or vlan interface
