This will be true as long as you are monitoring close to the receiving end. Otherwise you will miss jitter that is introduced by the network beyond your monitoring point. This means you may want to have two monitoring points for bidirectional voice traffic: one close to each receiving end.

You do not need the payload to perform jitter analysis so "tcpdump -s 50" might be safer (14 bytes Ethernet + 20 IP + 8 UDP + 8 RTP header). -Phil _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
