Here is a tool for quick monitoring of interface speed:

http://gael.roualland.free.fr/ifstat/

This tool is capable to monitor remote machines if you have running SNMP daemon on them.

Let's say that you have server A wiht IP 10.0.0.1 and two other servers with IPs 10.0.0.2 (B) and 10.0.0.3 (C), and you want to monitor interface speed on B and C from server A.

on server A install ifstat:
Code:
cd /usr/local/src
wget 'http://gael.roualland.free.fr/ifstat/ifstat-1.1.tar.gz'
tar zxf ifstat-1.1.tar.gz
cd ifstat-1.1
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
cp ifstat /usr/local/bin/


Be sure that you've installed devel package of snmp (net-snmp-devel-x.x) and you have snmp daemon installed on servers B and C.

On server B and C add this to snmpd.conf
Code:
rocommunity  public 10.0.0.1


To monitor traffic run:
Code:
#monitor server A:
ifstat
#monitor server B:
ifstat -s 10.0.0.2
#monitor eth1 on server C:
ifstat -s 10.0.0.R -i eth1


Download ifstat:
ifstat-1.1.tar.gz - Linux source
ifstat-1.1-win32.zip - Win32 binary
ifstat_1.1-1_i386.deb - Debian package
