  When you say virtual interfaces, are you talking what Cisco calls
subinterfaces, e.g. VLAN traffic on a port, or are you talking virtual

it's possible, but there are some Cricket examples for graphing virtual
servers (though I'm not using them.)

  Did you ever milk this kind of cow?  Well we can do it.  We know how.
If you never did, you should.  These things are fun, and fun is good.
