MRTG is available at:
http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html.
MRTG requires perl5 and the GD Graphics Library which can be found at
http://www.boutell.com/gd.  Very easy to use, and quite a lot you can get
out of it, although it really only shows the amount of traffic on a
network, not the specific types of traffic that are going through link.

MRTG also has a mailing list, which can be subscribed to by sending mail
to mrtg-request () list ee ethz ch with "subscribe" as the subject.  Also, if
it's still on the shelves, Linux Journal did a great story on Network
monitoring tools in the June 1997 issue.
