NetBox version

v3.2-beta1

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

When creating a Module bays in a DeviceType, it is possible to use ranges in the name of the template.
The position however is a static field.

Enabling ranges for the Position field would allow us to create multiple bays in one go, with proper positions

Use case

Enabling ranges for the Position field would allow us to create multiple bays in one go, with proper positions

Ex: Name : FPC[0-5]
Position [0-5]

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Feb 17, 2022):

Admittedly, this is a shortcoming of the current implementation. The reason it's not yet supported is that it will likely require some tweaking of the bulk creation form logic.
