B<Interface> is inverted: All selected interfaces are ignored and all
other interfaces are collected.
+It is possible to use regular expressions to match interface names, if the
+name is surrounded by I</.../> and collectd was compiled with support for
+regexps. This is useful if there's a need to collect (or ignore) data
+for a group of interfaces that are similarly named, without the need to
+explicitly list all of them (especially useful if the list is dynamic).
+Example:
+
+ Interface "lo"
+ Interface "/^veth/"
+ Interface "/^tun[0-9]+/"
+ IgnoreSelected "true"
+
+This will ignore the loopback interface, all interfaces with names starting
+with I<veth> and all interfaces with names starting with I<tun> followed by
+at least one digit.

-Select the rules to count. If only I<Table> and I<Chain> are given, this plugin
-will collect the counters of all rules which have a comment-match. The comment
-is then used as type-instance.

+Select the iptables/ip6tables filter rules to count packets and bytes from.

+If only I<Table> and I<Chain> are given, this plugin will collect the counters

If I<Comment> or I<Number> is given, only the rule with the matching comment or

=head2 Plugin C<ntpd>
+The C<ntpd> plugin collects per-peer ntpd data such as time offset and time
+dispersion.
+
+For talking to B<ntpd>, it mimics what the B<ntpdc> control program does on
+wire - using B<mode 7> specific requests. This mode is deprecated with
+newer B<ntpd> releases (4.2.7p230 and later). For the C<ntpd> plugin to work
+correctly with them, the ntp daemon must be explicitly configured to
+enable B<mode 7> (which is disabled by default). Refer to the I<ntp.conf(5)>
+manual page for details.
+
+Available configuration options for the C<ntpd> plugin:
