:    When you say virtual interfaces, are you talking what Cisco calls

Hi Clifton,

I want to graph these:

     interface ve 3
      port-name Building A
      ip address 172.16.80.1 255.255.240.0

Where we have several physical interfaces going to bldg a.

     interface ethernet 2/1
      port-name Building A-5915
     !
     interface ethernet 2/2
      port-name Building A-5921
     !
     interface ethernet 2/3
      port-name Building A-5927

It just occurred to me that I can just have the program sum all the
physical interfaces and graph the total.  This is kludgy, but it should be
the same as graphing the virtual interface.

did the Digital Island thing (just down Bishop St.) a few years
back.  Good luck on the Series A financing!
