This feature is more developer oriented. There are no changes to any interface checks.
The inventory function in if.include can now automatically create interface groups. If an interface is in a group you can specify this group in the first field (ifIndex) of the line. Instead of a simple index, you now put a tuple of (ifGroup, ifIndex).
The inventory function detects if there are multiple interfaces in the same group and creates a virtual interface out of them. Grouped interfaces are no longer listed separately.
