The FireBrick is able to graph traffic for each MAC or IP address it sees.
 
From the manual:
 
There is also an option for set-graph-source-mac which causes the session to set a (forward)
There is also an option for set-graph-source-mac which causes the session to set a (forward) graph that is based on the MAC address of the source packet, if from an Ethernet interface. The graph is created if it does not exist. If set-graph is also defined then each new session created also causes the speed settings and long term shaper parameters to be copied from the named graph (in set-graph) to the MAC named graph being used. This is aimed at management of open WiFi and the like allowing a named shaper to be defined and a copy of its settings created for each client based on MAC address.
graph that is based on the MAC address of the source packet, if from an [[Ethernet]] interface.
The graph is created if it does not exist. If set-graph is also defined then each new session
created also causes the speed settings and long term shaper parameters to be copied from the
named graph (in set-graph) to the MAC named graph being used. This is aimed at management of
open WiFi and the like allowing a named shaper to be defined and a copy of its settings created
for each client based on MAC address.
 
Assuming you have no current outgoing ruleset, create one such as:
 
<rule-set name="LAN Outgoing" source-interface="LAN" no-match-action="continue">
<rule set-graph-source-macdynamic="truemac" action="continue"/>
</rule-set>
