That one I don¹t know ... I think it may just collect stats for all
interfaces it can measure (i.e. Infiniband won¹t show up unless you use
IPoIB) ... from my tests, I can use it to monitor overall throughput of all
interfaces, although it can¹t do interface-specific breakdowns (but you
could write a plug-in to do that for you). Binding to a specific interface
wouldn¹t change the collected data, just the interface used for
communications.
