No Virtual Chassis in cable creation/edit

[PaulR282]

NetBox version

v3.5.2

Python version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a VC
2. Create a cable
3. Try to select a VC on one side of the cable

Expected Behavior

The Virtual Chassis should appear in the search results

Observed Behavior

No Virtual Chassis are shown

Edit for clarification: You can see the VC in the new selector but it is not shown when directly searching for the name.

Thank you for opening this bug report. Unfortunately the behaviour you described is not a big but intended behaviour.

You search for interfaces by searching for a device only, and you do not filter interfaces by Virtual Chassis normally. This is because interfaces are attached to devices and not to virtual chassis.

But then how should I connect a cable to a interface of a VC? When creating a VC the names of the devices are left blank, because they are automatically named later to VC:VC_Position. This way there is currently no way to connect to a VC because the devices don't have a name.

[DanSheps]

You will need to name your devices, serching interfaces for devices without a device name really isn't supported.

Please use discussions for further questions regarding how to do this.
