The following screenshot shows network-traffic (in Bytes/s) for the following connections:
 
 
 
* '''Black''': traffic from and to Trixbox #1
 
* '''Red''': traffic between the 2 Windows machines running X-lite
 
* '''Green''': traffic between laptop #1 and its Asterisk
 
* '''Blue''': traffic between the two Asterisk PBX's
 
* '''Pink''': traffic between Windows machine #1 and its Asterisk

From the graph shown above there can be concluded that indeed the two X-Lite machines are only connected to their own Trixbox, i.e. there is no ''direct'' traffic between the two X-Lite machines.

In the screenshot below, the following events were measured:
 
* @4 sec: Video was turned on
 
* @14 sec: Video was set to black (connection lost with DVdriver)
 
* @20 sec: Video showed moving pictures again.

* '''Black''': traffic from and to Trixbox #1
 
* '''Red''': traffic between the 2 Windows machines running X-lite
 
* '''Green''': traffic between laptop #1 and its Asterisk
 
* '''Blue''': traffic between the two Asterisk PBX's
 
* '''Pink''': traffic between Windows machine #1 and its Asterisk
 
 
 
The following graph shows the traffic is almost constant.
 
Till 35sec the conversation included audio and video. The rest is audio-only.

This measurement shows there is no traffic between both SIP-phones, only via (both) Asterisk PBX.
 
 
 
= Differences between voice and video =
 
For this test, we connected 2 SIP phones to the same Asterisk PBX.
 
We meassured the bandwitdh used between the following 3 points:
 
 
 
# SIP-phone #1 with camera
 
# SIP-phone #2 without camera
 
# Asterisk PBX

Legenda:
 
* Black shows audio & video from SIP-phone #1 to the PBX (video starting at the 10<sup>th</sup> second)
 
* Blue shows audio-only from SIP-phone #2 to the PBX
 
* Pink shows all traffic between SIP-phone #1 and the PBX (both directions)
