Release notes for 4.5 states that "Information about patch points is now also displayed on each port's ipdevinfo page". I created in Seed DB a new cabling and than a patch to connected to device port but in ipdevinfo page I can't see nothing.
Please how patch points works?
Cabling is the (more-or-less) fixed network cabling in your buldings. Use these to register which patch points (jacks) exist in your wiring closets (rooms in NAV), and which offices (building+target room) these lead to.
A patch entry records which registered jack a switch port is connected to, and possibly indicate whether a cable splitter is being used.
Using these two pieces of information, NAV can tell you which office a switch port is connected to.
I just did what you described, and it works fine here.
