I guess you could specify a capture filter of

	host 111.111.111.111

and capture a bunch of traffic, and then, after it's captured, use the
"Summary" menu item under the "Tools" menu to get that kind of summary
information.

I don't know offhand whether the "Bytes of traffic" item in the summary
window counts all traffic or just the traffic that passed the display
filter, so I don't know if you could just apply a display filter of

	ip.addr == 111.111.111.111

and get those statistics.  You could, I guess, apply such a display
filter, save the filtered packets to a file, and then read that file.
