I'm looking for some general ethernet statistics.  Here at Washington
University Engineering we run an Ethernet with 8+ unix and vms vax-750's.
I'm trying to find rough figures for several numbers:

	     Average ethernet packet length
	     Average time between packets
	     Anything else along these lines

If you have any idea what good values for these numbers might be please
let me know - Also let me know if I've overlooked an easy way of finding
them out for myself.  Thanks for any help you can give!
