But the reports it generates are extensive and does an excellent job of breaking down the traffic. Actually if you do have the info available via SNMP, MRTG can be setup to provide charts showing that data. You might want to check out CACTI, I believe it provides a better interface to MRTG but uses the same underlying tools.
