Limiting a customer view to just an interface

I am having trouble limiting the views for clients to just an interface and not the device.

Basically I monitor 2 or 3 pieces of equipment for hosted clients and want to show a port on my switch to them without showing the whole switch. I add the customer devices using the "Group of Nodes" and then add the interfaces for the client and the switch port on my switch. When I login as a customer I get an access denied error for the switch port unless I add the switch to group of devices. The issue with adding the device is they can see the stats for my switch (no other ports, but IP and other stats).

Is there a way to only publish the switch port and not see any other information on my switch?

Thanks,

When referring to "Groups of Nodes", I'm assuming that's the Account Limitation that you used. Have you tried using the "Groups of Interfaces" limitation?

I am using both "Groups of Nodes" and "Group of Interfaces". Below is an example of what I am doing with the limitations. The issue is the customer view works perfectly except when I click on the switch interface (Device3 - My Switch - Interface3) and access denied error shows up.

Example:

Groups of Nodes:
Device1 - Router
Device2 - Server

Groups of Interfaces:
Device1 - Router - Interface1
Device1 - Router - Interface2
Device1 - Router - Interface3
Device2 - Server - Interface1
Device3 - My Switch - Interface3

C'mon anyone?

One way you could do this would be to create a new node details view and remove all resources that contain information you do not want this user to see. Then assign this new view to the users account as the Node Details View.
