Cricket is very similar to MRTG - I just find it easier to work with so I
use it. MRTG may have a similiar feature for this.
In cricket, this doc explains the monitor thresholds
http://cricket.sourceforge.net/support/doc/monitor-thresholds.html
I'd just use the EXEC action and have it create a passive service check as
described here http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/passivechecks.html

Just setup a link in nagios to your mtrg/cricket monitor...that way the
info is there and a little more flexiable.
You could try to do it with the historgram's in Nagios, but that is just a
big overview of was it in a good or bad state. By tying it into a rrdtool
based system, you get the ability to see that for 3 days before it went
into the bad state, port 7 started to have a climb in it's amp draw or
something like that.
