Environment

  • Python version: 3.6.5
  • NetBox version: 2.8.1

Proposed Functionality

Allow services to be filtered by their attached ip addresses

Use Case

We have currently the ability to assign one or more IP to a service but we don't have the ability to filter services by IP.
It would be convenient to filter a service by IP since the information is available in the ipaddresses field but currently for my use case, I work around that limitation by writing the IP in the name field and filter on that, which is not very clean.

Database Changes

None

External Dependencies

None
