Originally created by @SteveRodrigue on GitHub (Apr 6, 2023).

NetBox version

v.3.3.10

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

At the moment, FHRP groups are global (no scope). Because of that, it's impossible to create the same group in different routers/locations/clusters. Which is possible and often the case in practice.

FHRP groups should have a scope like VLAN groups.

Use case

The feature is not usable as soon you want to reuse the same group ID in 2 locations router pairs, etc.

Typical setup when you have multiple locations/group of routers:
Router A and B in location X = VRRPv3 group id #10
Router C and D in location Y = VRRPv3 group id #10

At the moment, it's impossible to add/attach multiple group with the same ID.

Database changes

How would this help if routers A and B are in the same location? Or the same rack? It's a nice idea but I don't see this really working in practice. Instead, you can assign a unique name to each group for better identification. Granted it's not a great solution, but I don't see a scope assignment being of much help.
