How about devmon? It requires much less care and feeding than MRTG if you are concerned about the entire device -- if you only care about certain interfaces than MRTG is probably a better fit. However, devmon only supports a few (though common!) device types, so you might also be better off with MRTG if you are using "unusual" equipment.

I use mrtg. It can query via snmp routers and servers and store the > data in a rrd file (just like hobbit). I never tried to integrade > the information in hobbit, but I'm sure it can be done.
the integration is described in here :
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/hobbit-mrtg.html
this will simply add the graphs in the trend columns (by default) for the client.
Or, you can run bbmrtg.pl and have it generate alerts.
