Re: linux gatewway traffic bandwidth monitoring by source, destination, protocol and port

Yes, try pmacct http://freshmeat.net/projects/pmacct/

It uses either postgres or mysql to keep records and you can agregate by
hosts, networks, source ip, dest ip, etc.

A little difficult to set up and the docs are not very good, but if you
succeed, it's worth it.

Ntop does NOT keep history. If you reboot, you loose the history.
