`WirelessLink` model validation references wrong field

[pheus]

Deployment Type

Self-hosted

NetBox Version

v4.3.2

Python Version

3.11

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create two wireless-capable interfaces on two different devices (e.g., type = "802.11be").
2. Create one valid WirelessLink using those interfaces — this should succeed.
3. Attempt to create a WirelessLink using an invalid (non-wireless) interface for interface_b, while keeping interface_a valid.
4. Submit the form or API request.

Expected Behavior

A ValidationError should be raised indicating that interface_b is not a valid wireless interface.

The error should appear on the interface_b field as:

interface_b: "<type> is not a wireless interface."

Observed Behavior

Instead, the ValidationError appears on the interface_a field even though it is interface_b that is invalid.

netbox/netbox/wireless/models.py

Lines 207 to 212 in 0e68901

	if self.interface_b.type not in WIRELESS_IFACE_TYPES:
	raise ValidationError({
	'interface_a': _(
	"{type} is not a wireless interface."
	).format(type=self.interface_b.get_type_display())
	})

This creates confusion because the message doesn't correspond to the actual invalid field.

I've noticed this while analyzing Feature Request #19499.

I'd be happy to submit a fix for this.
