Logical MUX ability in switches

[TheWidowLicker]

NetBox version

v4.0.2

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

Allow logical MUX and replication group options in switches.

Use case

On Arista 7130L and 7130LB switches (as well as other switches), you can have multiple interfaces be the ingress (RX) of a MUX group and a single interface be the egress (TX) of the same MUX group. This is good if you want to have multiple hosts sending onto the same line.
In reverse of this you can have 1 port be the ingress (RX) from a line and then have it send to the egress (TX) on multiple ports so that a line can be replicated to multiple hosts.
