Check NANOG website for faq. 
I think its in the faq, but if not, MRTG standalone has threshold alarms and
Cricket front end does too. 
Ill check and if not add something in.

Subject: alert tool for out-of-norm bandwidth?
I'm looking for some sort of tool that tracks bandwidth on a switch port and
when the bit rate "suddenly" changes from the baseline alerts me.
I'm playing with Team Cymru's darknet project and basically need an
automated way of noting darknet traffic increase and then trigger a nagios
alert.
If there isn't something like this, I'll have to write it I guess.
thanks.
