Originally created by @bellwood on GitHub (Apr 19, 2017).

Issue type: Interface inconsistency

Python version: 2.7
NetBox version: 1.9.5

When viewing all racks, the search options on the right give me a searchable option for "none" under:

  • Rackgroup
  • Tenant
  • Role

Oddly, Site doesn't have "none" even though this too is an optional field.

When viewing devices I have a searchable option for "none" under:

  • Tenant
  • Platform

So my question is, should "none" be there for all optional fields when searching or perhaps should "none" only exist IF there are racks/devices in the database that are associated to those optional fields with undefined values.

Data point, all my racks are assigned a rack group and role, yet "none" is an option for those. They are all also assigned to a site, but, "none" is not an option for site.

Site isn't an optional field. Every rack must be assigned to a site.

So my question is, should "none" be there for all optional fields when searching or perhaps should "none" only exist IF there are racks/devices in the database that are associated to those optional fields with undefined values.

"None" is provided as a filter option for optional fields, regardless of what models are defined in the database.
