look for check_iftraffic.pl at nagiosexchange.org - this plugin uses 
snmp to measure traffic and calculates data rates locally. You can set 
limits, but (IMO) the plugin as distributes could need improvements 
which I did not finish yet:
- use 10-based values, not 2-based ones for throughput calculation (this 
is a simple modification)
- allow asymmetric spped settings, which would better suit ADSL users.
- support the funny interface names windows uses. I implemented this 
using REs, IIRC.

Perhaps I will publish my modified version some day...
