Open and view in Object Details > Interfaces
You can see the column name "ifType"

Thanks you. It's simple.

if ($1->ifType == 6)
   return true;
else
   return false;

could you please explain this a bit further? About ifType and how come a value of "6" is what you're looking for?

edit: nevermind, i found this, explains it i think: https://www.iana.org/assignments/ianaiftype-mib/ianaiftype-mib

Basically, add the relevant code into your Hook::CreateInterface script. You should be able to return false on interfaces that don't match the type you're looking for.
