Originally created by @jose-d on GitHub (Mar 2, 2023).

NetBox version

v3.4.3

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

to have possibility in ipam→services to assign independent pairs of protocol + port (eg. tcp/443, udp/8000) and be able specify only protocol without port, when using protocol without ports concept.

Currently, one can define one family of protocol ( tcp/udp/sctp ) and port.

Use case

On one of my systems, I am running beegfs cluster filesystem.

I'd appreciate, if I could document the reality which is:

beegfs-meta service is listening on ports:

  • udp/8005
  • tcp/8005

beegfs-storage service listens on:

  • tcp/8003
  • RDMA (there is no port concept)

Database changes

No response

External dependencies

No response

just for $someone who would land to this issue using Google/fulltext search:
The workaround is to create Config Context and and use it instead of IPAM::Services .
Perfectly enough for BeeGFS configuration description.
