Hi All,

I am a new member here and just downloaded and try the Ethereal over my
WinXP workstation.
All I need to get by using Ethereal is : I want to know the size (in bytes
or bits) of the outgoing Tx packets and incoming Rx packets from and/or to
my LAN when I run such application, for instance SAP, VoIP, etc.

Do you think that I can use this Ethereal for these purposes? Hope I can get
a guidance for it :-)

Thanks a lot in advance.

That is one of the functions of Ethereal. Just click on a packet and look in the details for that packet, in the lower box.
