Raw Blame History

NetBox v3.4

!!! warning "PostgreSQL 11 Required" NetBox v3.4 requires PostgreSQL 11 or later.

Breaking Changes

  • Device and virtual machine names are no longer case-sensitive. Attempting to create e.g. "device1" and "DEVICE1" will raise a validation error.
  • The asn field has been removed from the provider model. Please replicate any provider ASN assignments to the ASN model introduced in NetBox v3.1 prior to upgrading.
  • The noc_contact, admin_contact, and portal_url fields have been removed from the provider model. Please replicate any data remaining in these fields to the contact model introduced in NetBox v3.1 prior to upgrading.

New Features

New Global Search (#10560)

NetBox's global search functionality has been completely overhauled and replaced by a new cache-based lookup.

Top-Level Plugin Navigation Menus (#9071)

A new PluginMenu class has been introduced, which enables a plugin to inject a top-level menu in NetBox's navigation menu. This menu can have one or more groups of menu items, just like core items. Backward compatibility with the existing menu_items has been maintained.
