Yes that's it. I read a bit more though and will try to see what custom discovery scripts can do. One could expect a new interface could be added in the "Administration"->"Hosts and Interfaces"->"Interfaces"->(select by host) and then the "Add" link on the top of the interfaces list (like it works for hosts).

Read the list archives on how to use export_custom. Hmm patch, I got that export_custom to work, so that shouldn't be a problem. > Also you could put the "quit" string in the interface types fields. I don't understand what 'interface fields' you are referring to. And what "quit" would do wherever it should be put.
