[Babel-users] Adding/Removing Interfaces without Interruption?

Is there more to be done than just writing the equivalent to the 
add_interface function [0]? If so, I could add such functionality. I 
talk here about dynamic adding and removing of interfaces on a large 
scale (~500 interfaces). I would feel better if I can remove the memory 
structures again.

Thanks for your support.
