  • NetBox version: 2.3.2

Description

Currently, if a MAC address is entered, and interfaces are created in bulk, lets say GigabitEthernet1/0/[1-24], it is simply applied to all interfaces in the range.

If the MAC address were to increment by one for each interface given the starting MAC address, it would be extremely useful for devices like switches.

Rejecting this as MAC addresses are not necessarily sequential. Potential use case for #822 if you want to add it there.
