>> data from Serial and HSSI interfaces


Suggestion: have a look at mrtg and rrdtool  instead (www.mrtg.org and www.rrdtool.org )

much less pain IMHO

Hi List

We've started down the wrong track of collecting too much data from
snmpCollect.  What we need is basically data from Serial and HSSI
interfaces
(ie serial links).  To make this low maintenance etc, I wanted to use
smartsets, but a quick play indicates that the IsSerial attribute picks up
Serial links (including Diallers which I don't want), but doesn't find HSSI
interfaces which I do want.

Is this type of filtering possible with SmartSets, (using regular
expressions?), or am I asking too much from the functionality?  Would I be
better to perhaps use a Subnet based rule, but entering each subnet is
obviously higher maintenance.

Thanks, Leonard
