is there any way of checking the exact traffic passing through a cisco router.
Yes; do you want to see the total traffic passing through, or a breakdown of traffic by protocol? For the first one, check out mrtg and it's derivatives - purely SNMP, so it's supported by your router for sure; for the second, check out NetFlow - if your router supports it. If you could give some few details about your setup (router model/IOS version, whether you have a box that you can use for monitoring, and whether that box runs *nix or Windows) you'll get a heap of possible solution from the skunks.
