	This would be caused by the graphs identifying the vlans by a transient parameter, such as an arbitrary index.  The solution is to identify the invariant parameter (name?) of the VLAN, and have the graphing software associate the VLAN stats with that.  I have no idea what the mechanics are, but I would expect that the information is available in the MIB itself.


	HTH,

Mike
