NetBox version

v3.2.4

Feature type

Data model extension

Proposed functionality

I'm proposing to add functionality for front images to be specified for both moduletypes and modules in essentially the same manner devicetypes and devices use images. I don't see the need to allow rear images (unless someone else has a use case).

Use case

This would allow easier identification of which physical module the instantiated object is referencing by visually illustrating it.
Example: This would be particularly useful when modelling a Cisco ASR (ASR1004) as it has network modules within SIP module slots plus ESP and management module slots.
Image support is available for child devices within parent device bays. So, this request would accomplish the same thing for modules.

Database changes

The dcim_moduletype table will need the front_image column added (varchar100). I assume modules could use the existing extras_imageattachment table.

External dependencies

None

I did find the image functionality on the moduletype detail page. Please disregard.
