Regular Expressions for excluding matching Interfaces

[kwaH]

Hi,

maybe this is already possible and I am too blind to see how but I was looking for a feature to add regular expressions to the XML templates.

These regular expressions are supposed to tell Cacti which interfaces to exclude from the list when doing an SNMP walk.

The point in this would be to have a means of excluding "Virtual-Access" interfaces which can be numerous when you query a NAS.
Excluding "VLAN" Interfaces would also be possible and make things easier as there can be many of those on big switches.

I queried a NAS yesterday and ended up having over 13.000 interfaces in the Cacti list which was must uncool :)

Any thoughts on this?

Cheers,
