Depends on how you are running MRTG.  Are you wanting to run it locally,
or remotely via SNMP?  If you are running it locally, you just need a
script to output the data you want, which you can get from ifconfig.  If
you are wanting to run it remotely, you have to configure snmp to
display info on the virtual interfaces.
