 The nmdemandpoll brings out the same information, like the GUI-demand poll:
 I can see a Router with 3 Interfaces ,what I miss is a fourth existing
 interface.
 The SNMP Connectivity Test is successful.
 With a snmpwalk from the command line I can see an interface definition.
 I reach the interface with a ping.

 What else could help?
