RE: bandwidth monitoring based on destination IP address

Hi,

I have a customer who wants to monitor his    bandwidth based on
destination IP - ideally I would have liked to use MRTG 
(free, easy to set up, works well), but am not sure if MRTG 
can pull data off a Cisco router / PIX firewall via SNMP that 
will breakdown the usage based on L3 destination.
I figured if nothing else works, I could use brute force - 
sniff all the traffic and filter based on destination IP and 
packet size - somehow, that doesn't seem like it would be too 
much fun. I was hoping, with the wealth of experience and 
knowledge in this group, someone would have a more civil 
solution to this. Thanks
