I think the original design intent might have been that you collect on
all of them, and then just use the data you need, with the xnmgraph
command. But it boils down to the same thing, being that you have to
figure out which instances you want, and hope they don't change.

You can speed it up a lot by manually editing the configuration file, you
know. You can define the thing you want to collect, and add one device,
and then edit the file /usr/OV/conf/snmpCol.conf and replicate the line
for each device, and type in the interface instances at the end of the
line.
I do this on a regular basis.

In fact, you can generate the file from a script if you want. Maybe use
something like the mibtable command (see the man page) to extract the
instances for the types of interfaces you are interested in.  Maybe feed
the script from the output of nvUtil or something. Gee, I think I will try
this!

Hi!

I was wondering if there are som easy way of collecting certain data for
all
FastEthernet / Ethernet interfaces on Cisco routers without having to go
through them all and figuring out the interface numbers and then adding
them
one by one in the data collection dialog.
