NetBox version

v3.2.3

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

It would be nice to extend the replication and association checkboxes available in the UI to also be available when doing a module bulk import.

Use case

Adding a single module at a time is tedious and we are looking to utilize more bulk imports, but have now run into the limitation that device components cannot be automatically associated with that method and would still require manual intervention after the fact to do those associations. Possibly the larger at this point though is that there is no way to disable the component replication, so trying to do an import like this generates an exception for duplicate keys.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None
