Hi Harry, the MX9116n is a switch which can be put in a Dell MX7000 chassis. I moddeled it as a Child device because it's a device with it's own IP, management and configuration. Because we also have the HPE Synergy systemes I moddeled them the same: e.g. https://github.com/netbox-community/devicetype-library/blob/master/device-types/HPE/Virtual-Connect-SE-40Gb-F8-Module-for-Synergy.yaml
Please advise

HI @connect-cloud
Thank you for the information. Okay yes this should stay as a device type if it has it own management. For Devices we are asking for the following fields to be populated if possible:
weight and associated weight unit
airflow
