SUMMARY:
For interfaces with multiple IP addresses, mrtg 2.9.4
cfgmaker creates a target showing a secondary IP address
as "the" IP address for an interface rather than the
primary IP address.

DETAILS:
Interface TokenRing0 on our Cisco 4700M, router01, has
one primary IP address, 198.77.33.1, and two secondaries,
10.8.1.1 and 194.79.188.1. Here's an excerpt from our
configuration obtained using Cisco's "wr t":

   interface TokenRing0
    description Main Network
    ip address 194.79.188.1 255.255.255.0 secondary
    ip address 10.8.1.1 255.255.0.0 secondary
    ip address 198.77.33.1 255.255.248.0

When I run cfgmaker to create targets for router01's interfaces

   perl cfgmaker public at router01 --ifref=descr
      --global "Options[_]: growright,bits"
      --global "WorkDir: f:\inetpub\wwwroot\mrtg" > mrtg.cfg

the target for TokenRing0 looks like this, with one of the
secondaries shown as "the" IP address:

   ### Interface 8 >> Descr: 'TokenRing0' | Name: 'To0' | Ip: '194.79.188.1'
| Eth: '00-0b-5d-47-2d-14' ###

   Target[router01_TokenRing0]: \TokenRing0:public at router01
   SetEnv[router01_TokenRing0]: MRTG_INT_IP="194.79.188.1"
MRTG_INT_DESCR="TokenRing0"
   MaxBytes[router01_TokenRing0]: 2000000
   Title[router01_TokenRing0]: Traffic Analysis for TokenRing0 -- router01
   PageTop[router01_TokenRing0]: <H1>Traffic Analysis for TokenRing0 --
router01</H1>
    <TABLE>
      <TR><TD>System:</TD>     <TD>router01 in </TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>Maintainer:</TD> <TD></TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>Description:</TD><TD>TokenRing0 Main Network </TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>ifType:</TD>     <TD>iso88025TokenRing (9)</TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>ifName:</TD>     <TD>To0</TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>Max Speed:</TD>  <TD>16.0 Mbits/s</TD></TR>
      <TR><TD>Ip:</TD>         <TD>194.79.188.1 ()</TD></TR>
    </TABLE>

It would be better if it would use the primary address instead.

Thanks!
