That is true, of course. But after some investigation I found the error.

It seems the interface data template is using SNMP queries to get the 
speed of the interface. And for some reason bonding and vlan interfaces 
are only recognized as 10MBit interfaces. So the RRD file had an upper 
limit too low for gigabit speed. After fixing the RRD files everything 
looks good for now.

Thanks for your help!

Shade and sweet water!
