This is key.  CFGMaker created the cfg, but the SNMP on the device 
reported that the interface speed was 0.  Therefore CFGMaker commented 
out the section for that interface.  This is common as some devices 
don't seem to properly report their speed in SNMP.  Try uncommenting 
this section by removing the # signs. (# in perl indicates a comment 
follows).
