Stephen,

MRTG and Bering 1.2 work great together. I monitor a number of Bering 
VPN/Routers with MRTG. It is simple. If you load both the netsnmpd 
(daemon)and netsnmpu (client) packages you can test your snmp at the 
Bering console. Snmpd.conf does not need much modification. Just make sure 
you have a community name that will let you have access to everything you 
want snmp to see. See my snippet from snmpd.conf below which allows snmp 
to access everything defined in the mib:
        #
        #
        # community configuration
        #
        #         commName                      readV   writeV
        #
        community public                        xmini   -
        community "your community name" all     all


Verify that you can do an snmpwalk and get the data on the Bering box. 
Once you can see the snmp data locally it's time to put MRTG to work. 
Point MRTG at your Bering box with the correct community name and it will 
be able to report on all network adapters including virtual adapters like 
ipsec0.
