Depends - if you have a common community string on the
various devices then you can use a number of different
products that can learn the devices via SNMP. Other methods
include using netflow data or even automatically remotely
accessing the devices via telnet or ssh and collecting the
info. CS-MARS does that pretty well along with a number of
other products.
