Default Will MRTG do this??

Hello Everybody ,
I have Configured a Linux bridge that sits just before my router. Its in promiscuous mode and is working well. Now i want to know how much bandwidth is being used by each of the IP's in my LAN at any instant. Will MRTG give me reports showing the bandwidth utilization by each of the IP's? And should I install SNMP on each of the hosts for doing that???
Any input regarding the matter is a welcome...
Infinite Thanx In Advance
Regards
KartheeK

We use mrtg for that purpose only so it is not that hard just configure it and use it... yes you can get it per device or ip as per your needs
