Netbox Device View Plugin

Version Downloads

Install

The plugin is available as a Python package and can be installed with pip.

Run pip install netbox-device-view in your virtual env.

To ensure NetBox Device View plugin is automatically re-installed during future upgrades, create a file named local_requirements.txt (if not already existing) in the NetBox root directory (alongside requirements.txt) and list the netbox-device-view package:

# echo netbox-device-view >> local_requirements.txt

Once installed, the plugin needs to be enabled in your configuration.py and optionally the show_on_device_tab setting enabled.

# In your configuration.py
PLUGINS = ["netbox_device_view"]

PLUGINS_CONFIG = {
    'netbox_device_view': {
        'show_on_device_tab': True,
    },
}

First run source /opt/netbox/venv/bin/activate to enter the Python virtual environment.

Then run

cd /opt/netbox/netbox
pip3 install netbox-device-view
python3 manage.py migrate netbox_device_view
python3 manage.py collectstatic --no-input

How To Use

For each Device Type you need to add a DeviceView.

It is based on a CSS grid view with 32 columns and 2 rows. You need to specify the grid-template-areas.

  • Interface positions will use the following format: {interfacename}{module}-{port} or fallback to all lower case + [^.a-zA-Z\d] changed to "-"
  • leading "empties" can be specified as x
  • trailing "empties" can be specified as z
  • between "empties" can be named s{0-99}
  • numeric only ports have to be prefixed with "p" e.g. "p1"

Example for Cisco C9300-24T with 8x 10G module ( more in examples folder )

/* C9300-24T */
.deviceview.area {
	grid-template-areas:
	"x x x x x x x x x x x x x x gigabitethernet0-1 gigabitethernet0-3 gigabitethernet0-5 gigabitethernet0-7 gigabitethernet0-9 gigabitethernet0-11 s0 gigabitethernet0-13 gigabitethernet0-15 gigabitethernet0-17 gigabitethernet0-19 gigabitethernet0-21 gigabitethernet0-23 z z z z z"
	"x x x x x x x x x x x x x x gigabitethernet0-2 gigabitethernet0-4 gigabitethernet0-6 gigabitethernet0-8 gigabitethernet0-10 gigabitethernet0-12 s0 gigabitethernet0-14 gigabitethernet0-16 gigabitethernet0-18 gigabitethernet0-20 gigabitethernet0-22 gigabitethernet0-24 z z z z z";
}

/* C9300-24T with C9300-NM-8X */
.deviceview.moduleC9300-NM-8X.area {
	grid-template-areas:
	"x x x x x x x x x x x x x x gigabitethernet0-1 gigabitethernet0-3 gigabitethernet0-5 gigabitethernet0-7 gigabitethernet0-9 gigabitethernet0-11 s0 gigabitethernet0-13 gigabitethernet0-15 gigabitethernet0-17 gigabitethernet0-19 gigabitethernet0-21 gigabitethernet0-23 s1 tengigabitethernet1-1 tengigabitethernet1-3 tengigabitethernet1-5 tengigabitethernet1-7"
