NetBox version

v3.1-beta1

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

When two interfaces are bridged in a point-to-point fashion, cable traces should follow the bridged relationship, rather than stopping at the near-side interface.

Use case

This extension allows a more complete view of an end-to-end path. A common example is a point-to-point wireless link connecting two wired links. For example:

[ router ]         [ wireless AP ]                 [ wireless AP ]         [ router ]
 [ iface ] --- [ iface ]    [ iface ] - - - - - [ iface ]    [ iface ] --- [ iface ]
                   |            |                   |            |
                   +-- bridge --+                   +-- bridge --+
