Originally assigned to: @jeremystretch on GitHub.

Environment

  • Python version: 3.6.9
  • NetBox version: 2.8.7

Proposed Functionality

Standardize the maximum character length of all device components and component templates to 64 characters. Current fields limits are below:

  • ConsolePort: 50
  • ConsoleServerPort: 50
  • PowerPort: 50
  • PowerOutlet: 50
  • Interface: 64
  • FrontPort: 64
  • RearPort: 64
  • DeviceBay: 50
  • InventoryItem: 50

Use Case

Provides a consistent user experience and allows us to reduce boilerplate by inheriting a common name field for all components.

Database Changes

Requires a simple schema migration, which can likely be combined with other changes in v2.9.

External Dependencies

None
