NetBox version

3.0.2

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

When exporting a rack layout, it would be nice to have the ability to include the comment(s) on the device(s). Previous versions did include the comments.

Use case

Many times there is important data you need to know about a device that are entered in the 'comments' section. However, if someone relies on this data and they export the device(s), the comments are not shown.

Database changes

I'm pretty sure the intent here is to enable the inclusion of the comments field when exporting devices. I'll extend the scope here to do so for all models with a comments field.
