some time ago, there was a patch announced at this mailinglist.
just looked at it. at least in linux kernel 2.4.20 this feature
of mkiss.c comes by default.

you may just extract drivers/net/ax25.c from this kernel, add it to your
kernel source, and recompile+install the ax25 module.

imho, mrtg/snmp is the right way to go.
