Well, I hope that you do enabled byte accounting on all the
network
interfaces ???

        Something like: "ipfwadm -A -a -S 0/0 -D 0/0 -W ethX" where X =
0 to
nr. of interfaces and launched snmpd with "-a" flag to use the
accounting informations and NOT the braindead conversion of packets in
bytes.
        The only problem I think is that the byte counters is still 32
bits
large :( and a patch for that was rejected but still floats somewere.
        Yes, I know that 2.2.x kernels use ipchains but my Slackware has
a
script wrapper who do the job, if somebody care to translate this in
genuine ipchain-ese ;) is wellcome.
        But I think that what you need is a SNMP coprocesor who must
fillin the
blanks for the rest   
of the RIB values and can be also configured to do the job independed of
the main SNMP daemon, multiplexed with that.
        You can have one who accomodate the most twisted and perverse ;)
