When looking at the IP Inventory view, a CIDR Prefix/Subnet needs to be specified in the text box.

This field will prompt autocomplete suggestions if you type in three digits, but in some situations you may not actually know all the IP ranges that are being used on your network.

If the autocomplete list could be made to appear just by clicking the text field I think it would be a significant usability improvement.

I think it would also be of beneift if the default view had some placeholder text saying "Please enter a CIDR Prefix/Subnet to view" in the main report body, because at the moment it's just a white screen and at first glance it looks like something isn't working (until your're familiar with it).

while i see the issue i can suggest 2 workarounds:

  1. use the subnet utilization report with 0.0.0.0/0 as search criterium
  2. use %%% as searchstring; this abuses how netdisco handles sql queries.

I didn't think of using 0.0.0.0/0 , that's a really good workaround, thank you!

Netdisco has been very good to me so I don't want to abuse its database :)

It should look like this, prompting you. But yes there's no auto showing of prefixes. I have an idea to try...
