Hi Norbert,

a way to do this is using a MatchingSnmpInterfacePolicy for the requisition your switches are in. The basic idea is for each physical interface is evaluated against some attributes. In the example attached I’ve enabled data collection for all interfaces with operstatus UP (1).

You can do also enable those for interface types or a combination of them. If you want a little bit more control, you can also use a regex against the ifAlias which can be set on the device.

Hope this helps.
