Found the problem, STUPI isn't listing you as a known circuit:

nothing to do with it and doesn't know about it.

Bob's right; these are GRE tunnels (Peter is a hard-core Cisco guru),
both to Peter and to Brian H.   (who is quite sharp with Cisco stuff as
well!)

So how can we do this...I don't think IOS implements NICE, but I'm
sure its DECnet routing table can be pulled out via SNMP.   Brian
(Hechinger), I can set up a read-only SNMP community and your poller
(when it discovers an appropriate router) can walk the tree, maybe?   And
either Sampsa's code can parse that output, or you can reformat it into
a consistent format to hand to Sampsa?   What do you think?   (snmpwalk is
your friend!)

Oooooh. SNMP's an idea!
