IP addresses cannot be sorted by Status=Available.

[7qbit]

NetBox version

v3.6.2

Python version

3.8

Steps to Reproduce

Hello everyone,

It is about this closed issue #11209

When I sort IPs by status under Prefixes/IP Address, IPs with status "Available" disappear. Only when all sorts are removed, the unsorted ones are displayed. Otherwise they are not sorted on TOP and hidden.

Correct is like on this screenshot: #9328

Am I doing something wrong, would this bug not be fixed yet ?

Thanks

Expected Behavior

You should be able to sort IP address by each status, but this is not a given. the most popular is if "Availabe IP Address" could be sorted all on top of adresses.

Observed Behavior

It is currently not possible, if you sort by status, "Available IP Address" disappear, only if all sorts are removed, then you have to scroll on all pages until you have found Available addresses.

This is working as intended. Available IPs are not displayed when any other ordering is used, because in many cases it would not be feasible.

but that's not nice. our available IP addresses are spread out and not next to each other. If they could be sorted above then there would be less effort.

In addition, if you use sorting as usual, available IP addresses disappear (this must now be clarified separately for each user)

I still think this is a problem because when you click on Status:sort you also expect a sorting. Here, IP addresses that are still available unexpectedly disappear and cannot be found.
