net.if.discovery, Windows perf counters and #

[gmichels]

Hey all,

I'm trying to gather some perf counters from network interfaces in Windows boxes using net.if.discovery. The resulting list contains interfaces with a hash/pound sign:

                {
                        "{#IFNAME}":"Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface #2"},
                {
                        "{#IFNAME}":"Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface #4"},
                {
                        "{#IFNAME}":"Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface #3"},

The Windows perf counters replace the # with _ (underscore), so they expect:

Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface _2
Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface _3
Cisco VIC Ethernet Interface _4

Any way to do this dynamically? I really would like to avoid having to define stuff manually on a per host basis...

Using Zabbix 2.2.x everywhere.

Thank you!
