NetBox version

v3.1.8

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

On either the site view (/dcim/sites/) or ASN view (/ipam/asns/), or both - allow one to display columns of both ASNs and Site names. Currently one can only display quantity of ASNs per site or quantity of sites per ASN.

Use case

Prior to the introduction of ASNs, a list view of Sites (/dcim/sites/) allowed the now deprecated ASN as a column, so one could see a list view of ASNs and site names. This appears to have been recently removed.

With the introduction of ASNs (/ipam/asns/) this is no longer possible, you can see the Tenant name, but not site name. We can no longer easily see a list of ASN to Sites, only the Quantity of ASNs per site or the quantity of Sites per ASNs. This makes it difficult for the operator to view and confirm data accuracy.

The current view in the screenshot of ASNs before requires one to click on the ASNs column, which is 1 in this example.

asns

I would imagine it to look like this, from the ASNs view, where it would least all sites. I also realize this could look like a horrible mess if one has dozens of sites per asn or asns per site, but an easy remedy there would be to disable the column.

asns-with-site

Not shown: screenshots from site list (/dcim/sites/), which currently has the same limitation.
