It would be useful if there was a way to give a VLAN a name in Nebula and have the name appear in other parts of the GUI e.g.

1 = Default

2 = Printers

3 = CCTV

Having just VLAN numbers works okay when you only have a small number of people managing Nebula, but if you have lots of people and lots of VLANs, mistakes can be made and devices added to the wrong VLANs.

    I like the idea but if there are many VLANs, VLANs with particularly long names, or both, those columns could become excessively long.

    What might be a better option and provide you the results you desire, would be to provide a hover effect over each number in the columns which upon hovering over the number for x number of minutes, displays the Name and Description fields from the Internal Interface screen that is associated with each VLAN.
