Again: you have Nagios installed, along with iperf and have SNMP available. That is fully capable of logging/tracking/alerting on bandwidth usage, and you've been using them for years now.
Saying you want to "monitor" is too vague to answer...monitor how? How often? And do what with the information?? On what system? Same network/different?? You STILL omit details that would let anyone help you. Again: Nagios ALREADY DOES THIS, you already have it, and you've had years of experience using it. What, exactly, are you having problems with??

Further (as you well know), you can write your own plugin using whatever you want for Nagios, iotop is one thing you can use, as is (again) SNMP. And have you read the man pages for iperf or tcpdump, and thought about what they do, and why they aren't good for what you're after?
