yes..  you need to install mrtg or cacti to make this graphs.... and you need access to the router or a snmp public community in your router. is very simple if you have this. and you can find many tutorials in the internet, how to install it.

just a clarification for me..  
you want to reproduce the exact graph that you show in your link? this is mrtg but
if you need more detailed graphic you need to use ntop like cyclops said.

i prefered use ntop instead of mrtg.. but if you are a coreborder you need mrtg or cacti with rrdtools....
