We currently use MRTG on our Cisco routers and it works great. We > need a cost effective solution if possible. Get a 10baseT switch. I found a good deal on HP right now (http://www.hp.com/go/switchrebate). This switch costs ~$1400 incl. the SNMP management module. And HP has a "tradein" for $750 available.
