Flow of initial setup:

1. Define organization sites (+ customize table)
2. Define platforms
   • Avoid specifying manufacturers for generic OS, e.g. Microsoft for Windows 11, which will restrict assigning of platform to only Microsoft-produced devices.
3. Define manufacturers, then device types, then device roles, then devices (+ customize table)
   • Device types have been defined by the community in the devicetype-library repo. Helpful comment from Reddit¹⁾.
   • Components should be defined as well for ease of device creation, see screenshot
4. Define device interfaces
5. Define IP prefixes and specific addresses
