NetBox version

v3.4.5

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Netbox currently supports:

# Fibrechannel
TYPE_1GFC_SFP = '1gfc-sfp'
TYPE_2GFC_SFP = '2gfc-sfp'
TYPE_4GFC_SFP = '4gfc-sfp'
TYPE_8GFC_SFP_PLUS = '8gfc-sfpp'
TYPE_16GFC_SFP_PLUS = '16gfc-sfpp'
TYPE_32GFC_SFP28 = '32gfc-sfp28'
TYPE_64GFC_QSFP_PLUS = '64gfc-qsfpp'
TYPE_128GFC_QSFP28 = '128gfc-qsfp28'

What we need to add:

TYPE_32GFC_SFP_PLUS = '32gfc-sfpp’          => [Brocade 32Gb/s SWL SFP+ Product Brief](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.broadcom.com/docs/GA-DS-2048__;!!BhdT!ls37dMy4pnF-6hdYjEYU8fb0n6iAjFY6b79usqjQOZ2rQE8wrRVNwh-m5e35xVboDcJ1jLAri-dA37NF2R1jRDFY$)
TYPE_64GFC_SFP_PLUS = '64gfc-sfpp’          => [Brocade 32Gb/s SWL SFP+ Product Brief](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.broadcom.com/docs/GA-DS-2048__;!!BhdT!ls37dMy4pnF-6hdYjEYU8fb0n6iAjFY6b79usqjQOZ2rQE8wrRVNwh-m5e35xVboDcJ1jLAri-dA37NF2R1jRDFY$)
TYPE_64GFC_SFP_DD = '64gfc-sfpdd'            => [Brocade 64G SWL SFP-DD Product Brief](https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.broadcom.com/docs/SFP-DD-64G-SWL-PB__;!!BhdT!ls37dMy4pnF-6hdYjEYU8fb0n6iAjFY6b79usqjQOZ2rQE8wrRVNwh-m5e35xVboDcJ1jLAri-dA37NF2eSQwXt0$)

Use case

We need to have above types added to Netbox as we are using them to build out DC. It will be usefull for the other users building the environment by Brocade vendor devices.
