Actually, if you only need bandwidth information FlowScan and CUFlow would
do it quite nicely. What I would do is setup CUFlow and configure a
"Network" statement for every host/host group that you wanted to track.

Look at the "Bits by Subnet" graphs at http://ohioflows.ikano.com to see
what kind of stats you will get from the Network statements.

agreed. MRTG/Cricket would be easier. but, there are advantages
to keep network data. how i would go about it is to first
created the groupings. i define some tags that will be assigned
to each group (read flow-tags man page for more information on
writing the tag configuration).

the i write a bunch of scripts that do daily, monthly, yearly
processing. the script will flow-cat the information for tagging
by flow-tag and then summarization by flow-stat/flow-report.

it is a bit harder than MRTG but you get to keep a number of details
and your reports are a wee bit more flexible.

good luck!
