NetBox Structure

NetBox components are arranged into functional subsections called apps (a carryover from Django verancular). Each app holds the models, views, and templates relevant to a particular function:

• circuits: Communications circuits and providers (not to be confused with power circuits)
• dcim: Datacenter infrastructure management (sites, racks, and devices)
• ipam: IP address management (VRFs, prefixes, IP addresses, and VLANs)
• secrets: Encrypted storage of sensitive data (e.g. login credentials)
• tenancy: Tenants (such as customers) to which NetBox objects may be assigned
• virtualization: Virtual machines and clusters
