Installation VS nautobot

"The site" is actually just their blog. The github repo at https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox is more like the real homepage and has a good presentation.

Sweet! If it ends up anything like Netbox it will be so sweet. By looking at the screenshots I am very excited to see this implemented!

NetBox Release v3.6.6 is now live (as of November 29, 2023)!

Take a look at netbox. https://netbox.dev/

Pre-trained systems dominate AI today (as deep as the P in GPT). My team and I have been researching and building alternatives given how the hallucination, blackbox and other problems don't seem solvable within* the current paradigm.

One of our first applications is a network automation solution for Netbox-- locally trained AI Agents unique to each Netbox account to predict roles of newly added devices given the current local list of devices, like a context-aware autocomplete.

Agents are lightweight by design, this particular Netbox Agent is 40-neuron, and when hooked up demo.netbox.dev and consistently gets 80%+ accuracy predicting device roles even when trained on ~60 devices only.

Try it out: https://aolabs-netbox.streamlit.app/

You can use dummy data from demo.netbox.dev. More on Netbox: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox

We'd keen for feedback, if this is useful, how we could extend it if it is, or if it sparks other application ideas.

* Somebody has to be the pre-trainer, leaving an irreducible gap of misunderstanding between AI and its application which we are trying to diminish by adding a layer of local training.

Before upgrading, please: 1. Verify in release notes changelog if any new breaking changes might affect you. You can also review the NetBox Issues on GitHub to see if any new issues have arisen that might affect you. 2. Next, refer to the Upgrading to a new NetBox Release guide for steps to upgrade your instance.

I've been looking into some projects for some opensource software i use and noticed a few of them have empty __init__.py files (for example https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/blob/develop/netbox/core/__init__.py)

IT wise, It's been a fair few years since I've been in a department that does asset management, we used to use GLPI with it's warts and all, which got replace with https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox

Thats what I'mk looking into at the moment. There seems to be a great integration with netbox and nautobot. Both seem like an excellent fit for an IPAM + DHCP solution.

Nautobot is an open-source, extensible, flexible network source of truth and automation platform with lots of nice features that can integrate with network automation solutions. Offers GraphQL and native Git integration, REST APIs, webhooks and a plugin system that can be used to create network automation apps. TheFuzzyJew explains, "It's a Netbox fork focused on Infrastructure as Code."

Netbox and phpIPAM are good choices but I also want to mention nautobot: https://github.com/nautobot/nautobot

I mentioned netbot to a colleague who's very familiar with it, he recommended a recent fork with much more automation : https://github.com/nautobot/nautobot

Netbox or the imo visually better structured nautobot.

Netbox is very nice. It has a fork, Nautobot, that is making progress as well. Both are a fine base for automation.
