<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" color="navy" size="2"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">then it will default to choosing the device name as in one of the Targets. You have 4 different hosts in the targets so it is picking
a different one; just ass the cfgmaker directive<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

to include all of them (but this file is not run via MRTG). You can then view devices either individually or via the combined virtual device.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
