SUMMARY

The current MEDIA_TYPE regex does not pick up Twinax and QSFP optics.

Output is a subset of a Pandas dataframe for ease of viewing. Hope thats OK.

With the current template only a subset of the optics are retured.

@cldeluna We require updated tests and offer some helpers to generate the files. You should see some examples on the README.

With the change you made, it should have quite a few changes to existing test output, and then could you add a new .raw file with these new types to make sure they pass and we don't have any regression.

You can reach out on Slack if you need assistance.

Closing this for #879 to get merged in sooner than later. Your commit is within that PR so you'll get credit :)
