Does anyone know, if there's an mathmatical equation to calculate bandwidth utilized by ping reply times? If you know the bandwidth on the circuit. The reason why I ask is, I need to know the average bandwith being utilized, but the device doesn't have snmp capability. So what I have is average ping reply times and I know the circuit.

Thanks
