Change Details

Add the ability to set `include_ifmib_iface_prefix` for SNMP. ``` .IP "include_ifmib_iface_prefix PREFIX1 PREFIX2 ..." Sets the interface name prefixes to include in the IF-MIB data collection. For servers with a large number of interfaces (ppp, dummy, bridge, etc) the IF-MIB processing will take a large chunk of CPU for ioctl calls (on Linux). A set of space separated interface name prefixes will reduce the CPU load for IF-MIB processing. For example, configuring "include_ifmib_iface_prefix eth dummy lo" will include only interfaces with these prefixes and ignore all others for IF-MIB processing. ``` https://github.com/net-snmp/net-snmp/blob/0175f031c1bd902bf9fbd5c698298f645f449606/man/snmpd.conf.5.def#L105C1-L112C65 Proposed CLI ``` set service snmp interface-mib-prefix eth set service snmp interface-mib-prefix dummy set service snmp interface-mib-prefix bonding set service snmp interface-mib-prefix bridge ```

Another useful option `ifmib_max_num_ifaces NUM` Sets the maximum number of interfaces included in IF-MIB data collection Proposed CLI: ``` set service snmp interface-mib max xx ```
