a toss-up question...

What size of packets will vendor x's tcp/ip over token ring tend to
send out onto the wire?  I realize that the theory says it could be
upwards of ~4K for 4Mbs and ~17K for 16Mbs (corrections welcomed;-),
but what sizes might I realisticly see if I were to stick an analyzer
on a TRN today, and oh, say, 2 years from today...

inquiringly,
