NetBox version

v3.4.8

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

I see that the CXP form factor has been mentioned in a few issues over the years, most recently with respect to infiniband, but it does not seem to have ever been implemented for Ethernet. Therefore, I request the addition of CXP (100GE) under the Ethernet (modular) section of interface types.

Use case

We have quite a few service cards in our network (datasheet) that utilize a CXP pluggable slot to support 100GE connectivity and we would like to be able to accurately model them.

Database changes

None

External dependencies

None
