Switch's interfaces with same name

Hi,
I found a problem using the wizard "Network Switch / Router Monitoring" when there are multiple interfaces with the same name, Nagios XI takes only a single interface and does not add other supervision.
Are there was a way to automatically increment a character or number in the description of the interface ?
Thanks

The wizard has seen updates for XI5, how realistic is it to spin up a test instance of XI5 to see if it suits your needs?

I'll try this version in a test environment and will tell you if it works.
Thanks

If it doesn't, this will make a good feature request/bug report if you ask me!

I tested with the version 5R1.0 (Wizard 2.1.9), and it's same trouble.

Can we get some screenshots with the bug, interface name, etc.. I want to get a bug report filed for this, but I don't have a Cisco switch on site to test versus. Anything you can provide that would support a bug report would help.
Thanks!
