Hi,

First, thanks to Denise for pointing out the right direction
to look for. What was excat source of the problem is overriding
in router Defaults correct global datasource defaults
They are set to type GAUGE, and rrd-min/rrd-max set to undef in
router subtree instead of correct COUNTER type.
Putting the same datasource defaults as global default to interfaces
directory fixed the problem. For sample-configs maintainer: probably it
will be a good idea to put right datasource defaults to Defaults
file of interfaces subtree (inherintance down the subtree is powerful but
dangerous feature :-).

Thanks again Denise !

Oleg
