Originally created by @jeremystretch on GitHub (Apr 30, 2019).

Environment

  • Python version: 3.5.2
  • NetBox version: 2.5.11

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a device with 48 power outlets named A[A-C][1-16] (48 total)
  2. View the device

Expected Behavior

The outlets should be listed in natural order (AA1, AA2, ... AA12, AB1, ...).

Observed Behavior

The outlets are listed in an apparently random order. This was caused by the replacement of DeviceComponentManager with NaturalOrderingManager in #2986. The root issue is that device components such as PowerOutlet do not specify Meta.ordering on the model and thus are not being ordered.
