NetBox version

v3.2.2

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

When I look at the wiring of the power port on the device, I only see the counterpart from the next system. However, I cannot follow the current path to the power panel.

Idee:
The entire course up to the Power Panel is displayed. See picture:

Alternative :

You can jump to the next Cabel Trace picture by clicking on the bottom.
This is not as nice as the first idea, but it is still helpful.

Use case

Faster and better traceability of the circuit diagram.

Database changes

I think this should be feasible, but I need to dig into it more.

if the full trace would now be feasible, what about summing the power usage like requested in #3377? maybe this could be realized now much more easily, too?
