You can try our bastion-firewall-stats-addon, it's GPL and it uses
rrdtool to do the graphical stats. It's very easy to use, but you
have to use bastion-firewall to use it.

Another good option it's using something like Cacti to have an
interface to Rrdtool. It has scripts to monitor interfaces and
can do all kind of graphs.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
