Certainly.  RMON probes are designed for this purpose.  So is Netflow
export.  flowscan is a netflow export tool that will analyse the flows from
a cisco router.  RMON probes are built by all sorts of folks - NetScout and
Shomiti come to mind, but there are lots of others) and generally require
expensive software to monitor.

For MRTG stand-alone, there isn't.  MRTG's only job is to take numbers that
you give it (from SNMP or a script or ...) and graphs them.  So if you can
get HTTP or SMTP traffic from the machine that you are trying to query, then
the job can be accomplished.  Another way to say it, MRTG is never "smarter"
than the device your are trying to query, and therefore cannot tell you any
more than the device can tell you.

I know the above did not answer your question, but it should help you get
your answer ...

Hi Friends

Is it possible to do port based monitoring with MRTG. I am currently doing
inerface based. For example if I've to monitor bandwidth utilization on http
port or smtp port. Please let me know about any tools available for the
same.

Thanks in advance
Charanbeer.
