Originally created by @jschewebbn on GitHub (Feb 15, 2022).

NetBox version

v3.1.7

Python version

3.9

Steps to Reproduce

We have a custom text field named CNAMEs.

https://netbox-host/api/ipam/ip-addresses/?cf_CNAMEs=something.test.site
Returns a single IP address as expected.

https://netbox-host/api/ipam/ip-addresses/?cf_CNAMEs__ic=something.test.site
Returns all ip addresses in our system. Should only return the single address found above.

Expected Behavior

The "__ic" match should only return a single address like the equal check.

Observed Behavior

All ip addresses are returned.

@jschewebbn commented on GitHub (Feb 15, 2022):

The Filter Logic on this field is set to "Loose", which I believe is what I want as it is a field that contains a list of CNAMEs.

Doing more testing I see that using "__ie" also returns all ip-addresses, so perhaps I am misunderstanding the API documentation at https://netbox.readthedocs.io/en/stable/rest-api/filtering/

I also tried https://netbox-host/api/ipam/ip-addresses/?address__ic=10.30.0.11 and this returns all ip addresses as well.

Changing the "Filter Logic" property on the custom field from "Loose" to "Exact" is caused the "__ic" search to work. I'm not sure why, but it's working.
