Environment

  • Python version: 3.6
  • NetBox version: 2.5.2

Proposed Functionality

Extend the distinguish Rack-Group List Name with the SiteName on

dcim/racks/
dcim/rack-elevations/

for the Search-Box (Right Sidebar)

Use Case

If you build the same Rack-Group-Names per Site and want to Filter by the dcim/racks/ Site on the Right Side (Search-Bar) you see the Names of the Rack-Groups duplicated which is correct, since each site has the rack group name of the same name. With this Extension you could see the Parent-Side-Name of your assigned Rack-Group.

Rack group is already available as a separate filter field. If selected, the rack field will be limited to racks assigned to the selected group.
