Add a "Create and assign IP" button to interface creation dialog

[kasimon]

Environment

• Python version: 2.7.13
• NetBox version: 2.4.4

Proposed Functionality

Add another blue "Create and assign IP" button to the interface creation dialog that results in the same view as pressing the green "+" on a interface.

Use Case

Often when adding an interface, users also want to assign an IP address to it. Also the distinction between interface itself and ip addresses configured on the interface (that makes perfectly sense) can be a difficulty to grasp. They have to find the mouseover on the green plus of the created interface to find out how to configure an address to the interface. Having a shortcut directly from the interface creation dialog would result in a much more streamlined experience.

Database Changes

None.

External Dependencies

None.
