Release v1.8.0

New Features

Point-to-Point Circuits (#49)

Until now, NetBox has supported tracking only one end of a data circuit. This is fine for Internet connections where you don't care (or know) much about the provider side of the circuit, but many users need the ability to track inter-site circuits as well. This release expands circuit modeling so that each circuit can have an A and/or Z side. Each endpoint must be terminated to a site, and may optionally be terminated to a specific device and interface within that site.

L4 Services (#539)

Our first major community contribution introduces the ability to track discrete TCP and UDP services associated with a device (for example, SSH or HTTP). Each service can optionally be assigned to one or more specific IP addresses belonging to the device. Thanks to @if-fi for the addition!
