If the SNMP stuff is enabled on the router, then try one of the linux snmp
packages and use 'snmpwalk' to try listing all the stuff from the router.
Also, if you know the brand, lookup up the MIBs and stuff on the web site
perhaps.

If you can make sense out of that, then look at a package called MRTG
(http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg.html), it's designed
specifically to do what you are trying to do....

>Check http://www.ee.ethz.ch/stats/mrtg/ for an example. 
>MRTG is based on Perl and C and works under UNIX and Windows

I think Cricket is another package intended to do the same thing, but I had
trouble compiling that one.
