NetBox version

v.3.2.4

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Add full path in cable trace view. At the moment, we see the path in the format Site/Location/Rack, I think it would be more informative to see the path in the format Site/Parent Location/Location/Rack. Currently, to achieve this effect, you have to name locations in the format ParentLocation/Location, thereby preventing the use of the functionality of parent locations (counting devices, etc.).

Use case

More informative.

Database changes

No response

Unfortunately there's only so much detail that can reasonably fit into a drawing. Each of the objects within a drawing is a hyperlink to the corresponding object in NetBox; following these links will take you to all other relevant information.
