-NetBox is the leading solution for modeling and documenting modern networks. By
-combining the traditional disciplines of IP address management (IPAM) and
-datacenter infrastructure management (DCIM) with powerful APIs and extensions,
-NetBox provides the ideal "source of truth" to power network automation.
-Available as open source software under the Apache 2.0 license, NetBox serves
-as the cornerstone for network automation in thousands of organizations.
+NetBox exists to empower network engineers. Since its release in 2016, it has become the go-to solution for modeling and documenting network infrastructure for thousands of organizations worldwide. As a successor to legacy IPAM and DCIM applications, NetBox provides a cohesive, extensive, and accessible data model for all things networked. By providing a single robust user interface and programmable APIs for everything from cable maps to device configurations, NetBox serves as the central source of truth for the modern network.
 
-* **Physical infrastructure:** Accurately model the physical world, from global regions down to individual racks of gear. Then connect everything - network, console, and power!
-* **Modern IPAM:** All the standard IPAM functionality you expect, plus VRF import/export tracking, VLAN management, and overlay support.
-* **Data circuits:** Confidently manage the delivery of critical circuits from various service providers, modeled seamlessly alongside your own infrastructure.
-* **Power tracking:** Map the distribution of power from upstream sources to individual feeds and outlets.
-* **Organization:** Manage tenant and contact assignments natively.
-* **Powerful search:** Easily find anything you need using a single global search function.
-* **Comprehensive logging:** Leverage both automatic change logging and user-submitted journal entries to track your network's growth over time.
-* **Endless customization:** Custom fields, custom links, tags, export templates, custom validation, reports, scripts, and more!
-* **Flexible permissions:** An advanced permissions systems enables very flexible delegation of permissions.
-* **Integrations:** Easily connect NetBox to your other tooling via its REST & GraphQL APIs.
-* **Plugins:** Not finding what you need in the core application? Try one of many community plugins - or build your own!

+
+## NetBox's Role
+
+NetBox functions as the **source of truth** for your network infrastructure. Its job is to define and validate the _intended state_ of all network components and resources. NetBox does not interact with network nodes directly; rather, it makes this data available programmatically to purpose-built automation, monitoring, and assurance tools. This separation of duties enables the construction of a robust yet flexible automation system.
+
+<p align="center">
+  <img src="docs/media/misc/reference_architecture.png" alt="Reference network automation architecture" />
+</p>
+
+The diagram above illustrates the recommended deployment architecture for an automated network, leveraging NetBox as the central authority for network state. This approach allows your team to swap out individual tools to meet changing needs while retaining a predictable, modular workflow.
+
+## Why NetBox?
+
+### Comprehensive Data Model
+
+Racks, devices, cables, IP addresses, VLANs, circuits, power, VPNs, and lots more: NetBox is built for networks. Its comprehensive and thoroughly inter-linked data model provides for natural and highly structured modeling of myriad network primitives that just isn't possible using general-purpose tools. And there's no need to waste time contemplating how to build out a database: Everything is ready to go upon installation.
+
+### Focused Development
+
+NetBox strives to meet a singular goal: Provide the best available solution for making network infrastructure programmatically accessible. Unlike "all-in-one" tools which awkwardly bolt on half-baked features in an attempt to check every box, NetBox is committed to its core function. NetBox provides the best possible solution for modeling network infrastructure, and provides rich APIs for integrating with tools that excel in other areas of network automation.
+
+### Extensible and Customizable
+
+No two networks are exactly the same. Users are empowered to extend NetBox's native data model with custom fields and tags to best suit their unique needs. You can even write your own plugins to introduce entirely new objects and functionality!
+
+### Flexible Permissions
+
+NetBox includes a fully customizable permission system, which affords administrators incredible granularity when assigning roles to users and groups. Want to restrict certain users to working only with cabling and not be able to change IP addresses? Or maybe each team should have access only to a particular tenant? NetBox enables you to craft roles as you see fit.
+
+### Custom Validation & Protection Rules
+
+The data you put into NetBox is crucial to network operations. In addition to its robust native validation rules, NetBox provides mechanisms for administrators to define their own custom validation rules for objects. Custom validation can be used both to ensure new or modified objects adhere to a set of rules, and to prevent the deletion of objects which don't meet certain criteria. (For example, you might want to prevent the deletion of a device with an "active" status.)
+
+### Device Configuration Rendering
+
+NetBox can render user-created Jinja2 templates to generate device configurations from its own data. Configuration templates can be uploaded individually or pulled automatically from an external source, such as a git repository. Rendered configurations can be retrieved via the REST API for application directly to network devices via a provisioning tool such as Ansible or Salt.
+
+### Custom Scripts
+
+Complex workflows, such as provisioning a new branch office, can be tedious to carry out via the user interface. NetBox allows you to write and upload custom scripts that can be run directly from the UI. Scripts prompt users for input and then automate the necessary tasks to greatly simplify otherwise burdensome processes.
+
+### Automated Events
+
+Users can define event rules to automatically trigger a custom script or outbound webhook in response to a NetBox event. For example, you might want to automatically update a network monitoring service whenever a new device is added to NetBox, or update a DHCP server when an IP range is allocated.
+
+### Comprehensive Change Logging
+
+NetBox automatically logs the creation, modification, and deletion of all managed objects, providing a thorough change history. Changes can be attributed to the executing user, and related changes are grouped automatically by request ID.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> A complete list of NetBox's myriad features can be found in [the introductory documentation](https://docs.netbox.dev/en/stable/introduction/).

+# Translations
+
+NetBox coordinates all translation work using the [Transifex](https://explore.transifex.com/netbox-community/netbox/) platform. Signing up for a Transifex account is free.
+
+All language translations in NetBox are generated from the source file found at `netbox/translations/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po`. This file contains the original English strings with empty mappings, and is generated as part of NetBox's release process. Transifex updates source strings from this file on a recurring basis, so new translation strings will appear in the platform automatically as it is updated in the code base.
+
+Reviewers log into Transifex and navigate to their designated language(s) to translate strings. The initial translation for most strings will be machine-generated via the AWS Translate service. Human reviewers are responsible for reviewing these translations and making corrections where necessary.
+
+Immediately prior to each NetBox release, the translation maps for all completed languages will be downloaded from Transifex, compiled, and checked into the NetBox code base by a maintainer.
+
+## Updating Translation Sources
+
+To update the English `.po` file from which all translations are derived, use the `makemessages` management command:
+
+```nohighlight
+./manage.py makemessages -l en
+```
+
+Then, commit the change and push to the `develop` branch on GitHub. After some time, any new strings will appear for translation on Transifex automatically.
+
+## Proposing New Languages
+
+If you'd like to add support for a new language to NetBox, the first step is to [submit a GitHub issue](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/new?assignees=&labels=type%3A+translation&projects=&template=translation.yaml) to capture the proposal. While we'd like to add as many languages as possible, we do need to limit the rate at which new languages are added. New languages will be selected according to community interest and the number of volunteers who sign up as translators.
+
+Once a proposed language has been approved, a NetBox maintainer will:
+
+* Add it to the Transifex platform
+* Designate one or more reviewers
+* Create the initial machine-generated translations for review
+* Add it to the list of supported languages

+# Event Rules
+
+NetBox includes the ability to execute certain functions in response to internal object changes. These include:
+
+* [Scripts](../customization/custom-scripts.md) execution
+* [Webhooks](../integrations/webhooks.md) execution
+
+For example, suppose you want to automatically configure a monitoring system to start monitoring a device when its operational status is changed to active, and remove it from monitoring for any other status. You can create a webhook in NetBox for the device model and craft its content and destination URL to effect the desired change on the receiving system. You can then associate an event rule with this webhook and the webhook will be sent automatically by NetBox whenever the configured constraints are met.
+
+Each event must be associated with at least one NetBox object type and at least one event (e.g. create, update, or delete).
+
+## Conditional Event Rules
+
+An event rule may include a set of conditional logic expressed in JSON used to control whether an event triggers for a specific object. For example, you may wish to trigger an event for devices only when the `status` field of an object is "active":
+
+```json
+{
+  "and": [
+    {
+      "attr": "status.value",
+      "value": "active"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+For more detail, see the reference documentation for NetBox's [conditional logic](../reference/conditions.md).
+
+## Event Rule Processing
+
+When a change is detected, any resulting events are placed into a Redis queue for processing. This allows the user's request to complete without needing to wait for the outgoing event(s) to be processed. The events are then extracted from the queue by the `rqworker` process. The current event queue and any failed events can be inspected in the admin UI under System > Background Tasks.

-A webhook may include a set of conditional logic expressed in JSON used to control whether a webhook triggers for a specific object. For example, you may wish to trigger a webhook for devices only when the `status` field of an object is "active":
-
-```json
-{
-  "and": [
-    {
-      "attr": "status.value",
-      "value": "active"
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-For more detail, see the reference documentation for NetBox's [conditional logic](../reference/conditions.md).
+!!! note
+    The setting of conditional webhooks has been moved to [Event Rules](../features/event-rules.md) since NetBox 3.7
 
 ## Webhook Processing
 
-When a change is detected, any resulting webhooks are placed into a Redis queue for processing. This allows the user's request to complete without needing to wait for the outgoing webhook(s) to be processed. The webhooks are then extracted from the queue by the `rqworker` process and HTTP requests are sent to their respective destinations. The current webhook queue and any failed webhooks can be inspected in the admin UI under System > Background Tasks.

+# EventRule
+
+An event rule is a mechanism for automatically taking an action (such as running a script or sending a webhook) in response to an event in NetBox. For example, you may want to notify a monitoring system whenever the status of a device is updated in NetBox. This can be done by creating an event for device objects and designating a webhook to be transmitted. When NetBox detects a change to a device, an HTTP request containing the details of the change and who made it be sent to the specified receiver.
+
+See the [event rules documentation](../../features/event-rules.md)  for more information.

+
+!!! info "This feature was introduced in NetBox v3.7."
+
+Plugins can register their own custom columns on core tables using the `register_table_column()` utility function. This allows a plugin to attach additional information, such as relationships to its own models, to built-in object lists.
+
+```python
+import django_tables2
+from django.utils.translation import gettext_lazy as _
+
+from dcim.tables import SiteTable
+from utilities.tables import register_table_column

+    accessor=django_tables2.A('description')
+)
+
+register_table_column(mycol, 'foo', SiteTable)
+```
+
+You'll typically want to define an accessor identifying the desired model field or relationship when defining a custom column. See the [django-tables2 documentation](https://django-tables2.readthedocs.io/) for more information on creating custom columns.

+
+---
+
+## v3.7.0 (2023-12-29)
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+* The following fields have been removed from the Webhook model: `content_types`, `type_create`, `type_update`, `type_delete`, `type_job_start`, `type_job_end`, `enabled`, and `conditions`. Webhooks are now tied to events via [event rules](../features/event-rules.md). New event rules will be created for any existing webhooks automatically upon upgrade.
+* The `ui_visibility` field on the [custom field model](../models/extras/customfield.md) has been replaced with two new fields: `ui_visible` and `ui_editable`. These new fields will have their values mapped from the original field automatically upon upgrade.
+* The `FeatureQuery` class used internally for querying content types by model feature has been removed. It has been replaced by the new `with_feature()` manager method on NetBox's proxy model for ContentType (`core.models.ContentType`).
+* The internal ConfigRevision model has moved from `extras` to `core`. Configuration history will be retained throughout the upgrade process.
+* The [L2VPN](../models/vpn/l2vpn.md) and [L2VPNTermination](../models/vpn/l2vpntermination.md) models have moved from the `ipam` app to the new `vpn` app. All object data will be retained, however please note that the relevant API endpoints have likewise moved to `/api/vpn/`.
+* The `CustomFieldsMixin`, `SavedFiltersMixin`, and `TagsMixin` classes have moved from the `extras.forms.mixins` module to `netbox.forms.mixins`.
+* The `netbox.models.features.WebhooksMixin` class has been renamed to `EventRulesMixin`.
+
+### New Features
+
+#### VPN Tunnels ([#9816](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/9816))
+
+Several new models have been introduced to enable [VPN tunnel management](../features/vpn-tunnels.md). Users can now define tunnels with two or more terminations to represent peer-to-peer or hub-and-spoke topologies. Each termination is made to a virtual interface on a device or virtual machine. Additionally, users can define IKE and IPSec proposals and policies, which can be applied to tunnels to document encryption and authentication strategies.
+
+#### Event Rules ([#14132](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/14132))
+
+This release introduces [event rules](../features/event-rules.md), which can be used to send webhooks or execute custom scripts automatically in response to events that occur in NetBox. For example, it's now possible to run a custom script whenever a new site is created with a particular status or tag.
+
+Event rules replace and extend functionality that was previously built into the webhook model. New event rules will be created for any existing webhooks automatically upon upgrade.
+
+#### Virtual Machine Disks ([#8356](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/8356))
+
+A new [VirtualDisk](../models/virtualization/virtualdisk.md) model has been introduced to enable tracking the assignment of discrete virtual disks to virtual machines. The `size` field has been retained on the VirtualMachine model, and will be populated automatically with the aggregate size of all assigned virtual disks. (Users who opt to eschew the new model may continue using the VirtualMachine `size` attribute independently as in previous releases.)
+
+#### Object Protection Rules ([#10244](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/10244))
+
+A new [`PROTECTION_RULES`](../configuration/data-validation.md#protection_rules) configuration parameter has been introduced. Similar to how [custom validation rules](../customization/custom-validation.md) can be used to enforce certain values for object attributes, protection rules guard against the deletion of objects which do not meet specified criteria. This enables an administrator to prevent, for example, the deletion of a site which has a status of "active."
+
+#### Improved Custom Field Visibility Controls ([#13299](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/13299))
+
+The `ui_visible` field on [the custom field model](../models/extras/customfield.md) has been superseded by two new fields, `ui_visible` and `ui_editable`, which control how and whether a custom field is displayed when view and editing an object, respectively. Separating these two functions into discrete fields allows more control over how each custom field is presented to users. The values of these fields will be appropriately set automatically during the upgrade process from the value of the original field.
+
+#### Improved Global Search Results ([#14134](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/14134))
+
+Global search results now include additional context about each object, such as a description, status, and/or related objects. The set of attributes to be displayed is specific to each object type, and is defined by setting `display_attrs` under the object's [SearchIndex class](../plugins/development/search.md#netbox.search.SearchIndex).
+
+#### Table Column Registration for Plugins ([#14173](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/14173))
+
+Plugins can now [register their own custom columns](../plugins/development/tables.md#extending-core-tables) for inclusion on core NetBox tables. For example, a plugin can register a new column on SiteTable using the new `register_table_column()` utility function, and it will become available for users to select for display.
+
+#### Data Backend Registration for Plugins ([#13381](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/13381))
+
+Plugins can now [register their own data backends](../plugins/development/data-backends.md) for use with [synchronized data sources](../features/synchronized-data.md). This enables plugins to introduce new backends in addition to the git, S3, and local path backends provided natively.
