Originally created by @maxiboom85 on GitHub (Jul 4, 2021).

NetBox version

v2.11.7

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

Add in DCIM "series of devices".
A small table: id, series and description.
Allow selecting a series when creating a device.

Use case

Using Netbox as SSOT we get all information from Netbox, such as model, manufacturer and then use this information as inventory. Then we can get some information from devices or work with devices by nornir, ssh, snmp, etc using this inventory.
But, for example, SNMP MIB may differ from model to model and because of this we need to add some logic in scripts based on the model.
On the other hand, we can combine the models in series, for example, Cisco Catalyst 3750 series where we combine 5-6 models and then use the series properties.
This will simplify writing of scripts and allow to store of additional information.
