You have two options (well, three, if you count creating your own script):

* In native MRTG, you can define a calculated target - eg,
Target[sum]: 1:[EMAIL PROTECTED] + 2:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
And then get a graph showing the total of multiple targets.  This works in all 
MRTG modes, but you only get a single line on the graph so no breakdown of the 
components.

* If you are using RRDtool and the routers2 frontend, you can define a 
userdefined summary graph over the component Targets.  This allows you to have 
all the lines on a single graph, plus a total and/or average line.  You can 
also do clever things like stack the component lines, or put 'incoming' above 
the x-axis and 'outgoing' below the x-axis, or even do all these things at the 
same time.
