Experimental Setup

In order to gain inside in the bandwitdh usage when SIP-phones use different codecs, the following experimental setup is used. A voice-call has been established between SIP-phone 201, which uses the GSM-codec and SIP-phone 301, which uses the G711u-codec.

Results

With WireShark data has been collected and the following filters are used in the in I/O-graph:

Filter-Black: proto=sip
Filter-Red  : ip.addr == 192.168.1.3   && ip.addr == 192.168.1.106
Filter-Green: ip.addr == 192.168.1.189 && ip.addr == 192.168.1.101
Filter-Blue : ip.addr == 192.168.1.106 && ip.addr == 192.168.1.101
Filter-Pink : ip.addr == 192.168.1.100 && ip.addr == 192.168.1.101

This does not tell us which Asterisk box makes the conversion between the GSM codec and the G711u codec. Therefore we made another graph with the traffic measured only in one direction.

Used filters in I/O-graph:

Filter-Black: ip.src == 192.168.1.101 && ip.dst == 192.168.1.106
Filter-Red  : ip.src == 192.168.1.3   && ip.dst == 192.168.1.106
Filter-Green: ip.src == 192.168.1.189 && ip.dst == 192.168.1.101
Filter-Blue : ip.src == 192.168.1.106 && ip.dst == 192.168.1.101
Filter-Pink : ip.src == 192.168.1.100 && ip.dst == 192.168.1.101
