<![CDATA[Port Negotiation Template]]>Hello,

I'm trying to setup a template that collects port negotiation rates on Mikrotik devices. I get the info that I want on physical ports, but I get 0 results on virtual interfaces. I would like to filter out virtual interfaces so DCIs are not being created.

transport = CreateSNMPTransport($node);
if (transport == null)
 return false;
// get the interface name to return as instance-name
vb = SNMPGet(transport, ".1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.1." .. $1);
if (vb == null) or (vb == 0)
 return false;
// filter out loopback
if (vb.value == "lo")
 return false;
return %(true, $1, vb.value);

I've tried using contains(vb.value, "vlan") on the bottom statement, but that just breaks the script.

I've attached screenshots of an example similar to your approach. It worked for me on server version 5.2.x (Debian) against a 6-port MikroTik.

interface = $node?.getInterfaceByIndex($1);
if (interface != null) {
    if (interface.ifType == 6)
        return [true, $1, interface.name];
}
