For a single box, ntop is what you're looking for. Be forewarned though
- traceing ALL packages (which ntop will do) takes a lot of disk-space.
Your /var will grow considerable. But the stats are very very nice!

Well, you wanted detailed graphs? I would exactly call the output pretty
but it's there, sorted all kinds of ways.

Web <> realtime unless you run applets of some kind. But it'll get close
enough. Otherwise, why not look for a real network management solution
like nagious? They'll give you interface traffic on all your equipment.
Usually I track traffic accross the network; not just on a single host.
