Combining "Search" and "Filter" for IP Addresses

[candlerb]

Perhaps I am being dense here, but if I go to /ipam/ip-addresses/ I am unable to search for a keyword within a filtered range.

In the Filter box it says "Search within (Prefix)", which to me implies that it should be possible to do a keyword search within the prefix.

To replicate:

• In Search box, enter some text e.g. "mon"
• In Filter > Search Within, enter a prefix e.g. "192.168.7.0/24"
• If I click the magnifying glass next to the Search box, I get all hosts containing "mon" (not filtered to prefix)
• If I click the "Apply" button at the bottom of the Filter area, I get all hosts in 192.168.7.0/24 (not filtered to "mon")

However, it is possible to do the search I want if I construct the URL manually: /ipam/ip-addresses/?parent=192.168.7.0%2F24&q=mon. This would be a useful search to do from the UI.

If Search and Filter are intended to be exclusive (and I note they are within separate bounding rectangles), maybe the wording could be made clearer, e.g. "Addresses within" rather than "Search within"

Clients tested under OSX 10.11, all same behaviour:

• Chrome 55
• Safari
• Firefox 50.1.0

The two panels on the side each contain a separate form, the first being a single-field keyword search (q) and the second being a set of fields derived from the model's FilterForm. These can be combined by adding the q query to the FilterForm. (For all NetBox objects, not just prefixes.)
