There are several tools that will measure this, depending on exactly
what you want to measure: between two hosts, per protocol, per port,
or just raw transfers on your external interface.

For raw xfers, snmp would be a good choice, and there are several
tools that will provide graphs by polling snmp.

There are several others as well.  I suggest a search of freshmeat.net
and peruse some of their networking tools.
