* Package name : netbox
Version : 3.2.8
Upstream Author : Jeremy Stretch <jstretch@ns1.com>
* URL : https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox
* License : Apache-2.0 and MIT/X
Programming Lang: Python
Description : WebUI based tool designed to manage and document computer networks

NetBox is a Django based web application, initially conceived by the network
engineering team at DigitalOcean, NetBox was developed specifically to address
the needs of network and infrastructure engineers. It encompasses the following
aspects of network management:
.
* Hierarchical regions, site groups, sites, and locations
* Racks, devices, and device components
* Cables and wireless connections
* Power distribution
* Data circuits and providers
* Virtual machines and clusters
* IP prefixes, ranges, and addresses
* VRFs and route targets
* FHRP groups (VRRP, HSRP, etc.)
* AS numbers
* VLANs and scoped VLAN groups
* Organizational tenants and contacts
.
In addition to its extensive built-in models and functionality, NetBox can
be customized and extended through the use of:
.
* Custom fields
* Custom links
* Configuration contexts
* Custom model validation rules
* Reports
* Custom scripts
* Export templates
* Conditional webhooks
* Plugins
* Single sign-on (SSO) authentication
* NAPALM integration
* Detailed change logging
.
NetBox also features a complete REST API as well as a GraphQL API for easily
integrating with other tools and systems.
.
While NetBox strives to cover many areas of network management, the scope of
its feature set is necessarily limited. This ensures that development focuses
on core functionality and that scope creep is reasonably contained. To that
end, it might help to provide some examples of functionality that NetBox does
not provide:
.
* Network monitoring
* DNS server
* RADIUS server
* Configuration management
* Facilities management

I plan to maintain netbox within the Debian Python Team ideally together
with some more interested people in managing the maintenance.
Right now all needed build and binary package dependencies are
fulfilled, as NetBox is getting actively developed it constantly
bugfixes and new added features which might need new dependencies in the
near future which are not packed yet. I'd like to see (if possible) the netbox package within the bookworm release.

The NetBox UI is using some comprehensive JS files which are shipped as minimized files. Currently I'm unable to drop the shipped minimized code
and rebuild all the needed files from scratch. If possible I'd like to
get some help on this, currently netbox will need to go into non-free due
the non rebuild-able minimized files.
OTOH netbox can't go into main as it requires at least one package from non-free, it requires drf-yasg-nonfree for some Swagger functionality.

Regards
Carsten
