NetBox version

v3.6.6

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

In the rear ports view, I can immediately see the target (link peers)

If you navigate from the front port view to the rear port, it is not displayed.

First you have to click on the cable and then you have to be aware that connection B is what you are looking for.

Improvement no. 1: Please also include link peers in the rear port single view.

Improvement Nr. 2:
Please display the rear ports link peers in the front ports view as well.

Front Ports Link Peers and Rear Ports Link Peers on one page helps to avoid having to scroll back and forth. Because the Rear Ports view is only necessary to maintain the cable routes. Otherwise you don't really need this view.

The Front Port and Front Lin Peers fields are also helpful for backward tracking.
