Hi,

There was a hard-coded regular expression matching /ng[0-9]/, which I've 
removed and replaced with an array-driven regexp matcher.

Please replace your includes/discovery/interfaces.php with :

http://www.observernms.org/svn/observer/trunk/includes/discovery/interfaces.php

Please also add :

$config['bad_if_regexp'] = array("/serial[0-9]:/");

To your config.php. You can add/remove entries from thsi array and 
they'll be matched like the existing bad_if array (albiet more slowly).

I've tested it on my m0n0wall and it works ok :

jersey.memetic.org
Interfaces : .....+.
IP Addresses : ...S+
IPv6 Addresses :
Temperatures :

You can see it on the demo : 
http://demo.observernms.org/device/2/ports/details/ (login demo/demo)

I notice that there are no IPv6 addresses being reported by m0n0 
(atleast with 1.3b15 on the test device). Does the snmpd need recompiled 
with --use-ipv6 or something?

Thanks,
adam.
