I just wanted to point out that Antonio Russo in Napoli is doing a  
lot of work with OpenNMS. Perhaps we need an OpenNMS Users Group in  
Italy? (grin)

We actually do this already.

opennms=# \d snmpinterface
               Table "public.snmpinterface"
        Column       |          Type          | Modifiers
--------------------+------------------------+-----------
nodeid             | integer                |
ipaddr             | character varying(16)  | not null
snmpipadentnetmask | character varying(16)  |
snmpphysaddr       | character(12)          |
snmpifindex        | integer                |
snmpifdescr        | character varying(256) |
snmpiftype         | integer                |
snmpifname         | character varying(32)  |
snmpifspeed        | integer                |
snmpifadminstatus  | integer                |
snmpifoperstatus   | integer                |
snmpifalias        | character varying(256) |

The snmpphyaddr field in the database contains the MAC address (or  
should).
