The "protocol hierarchy statistics" for an ssh connection say e.g.
        Protocol        % Packets       Packets Bytes
        Frame           100%            12      858
        IP              100%            12      858
        TCP             100%            12      858
        Data            25%              3      248

This is not correct, it would be better if it would say e.g.
        IP              100%            12      690
        ...
because IP takes only 858Bytes - 12Pkts * 14Bytes ethernet frame header.


At least I miss the feature that allowes me to see how many IP bytes a
sniffed connection took to check our accounting tools.
