The industry standard MIB-2 allows you to collect network and traffic information about each IP node. It provides rough figures from monitoring the traffic in gateways and hubs, including routers on the subnet. If you installed the network device (RMON Probe) on each segment, you can collect the RMON-MIB data and monitor the traffic amount per LAN segment with even more accuracy.
