Hi Wilson,
if you need to monitor traffic on a lan i can suggest you both iptraf
and ntop. The last one provide also a mini web interface with traffix
matrix and statistics of any kind (very nice).
Instead if you've to monitor wan traffic routed over boxes that support
snmp the best (i think) is Mrtg. There's also a modified version of mrtg
that use SQL to store polled data over a database but i don't remember
the name of the program.
