L2VPN Visualization

[CVT-Adam]

NetBox version

v3.6.6

Topology Views version

v3.8.1

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

Ability to visualize the l2vpn data within the topology view. currently you can show cables and circuits but no l2vpn data.

Use case

Netbox doesn't allow for a multipoint circuit terminations which is a really common function. but the L2VPN allows multiple terminations. this is a really common process to do in a MPLS network. and I think anyone with a multi-point circuit could benefit from visualizing that data.

Agree with the proposal. With new features of Netbox 3.7 such as VPNs (IPSEC and L2VPN) this is becoming more relevant.

This would be an amazing add on, even if you could just connect all the circuits to a single point and call it "provider mpls switch fabric" it would look like hub and spoke but at least you could see term points connected. This would help in sdwan scenarios where you have multiple providers and circuits at each site.
