− | 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.

− | 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.

| |
− | For this test, we connected 2 SIP phones to the same Asterisk PBX.
| |
− | We measured 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)

− | The debug-screen [[image:X-lite debug-info.png|right|157px|X-lite debug-screen]] of X-lite (Ctrl + F9) told us the SIP-phone assumed a total available bandwith of 256/256 kbps.
| |
− | This was filled with 64 kbps for speech (protocol g711u) and 131 kbps for video (protocol H263-1998)
| |
− | | |
− | When looking at the speech traffic:
| |
− | * 50 packets/sec (measured with Ethereal)
| |
− | * 214 Bytes/packet (measured with Ethereal)
| |
− | * +/- 10,7 kByte/s
| |
− | * 160 bytes audio-data per packet (64 kbps = 8000 Bytes/sec, 50 packets/sec)
| |
− | * UDP-packet-header: 28 Bytes.
| |
− | | |
− | Measured IAX-overhead: (the g711u codec uses a CBR of 64kbps) 214 - 28 - 160 = 26 Bytes/packet.
| |
− | Thus 1300 Bytes/sec IAX overhead. (10k4 bps)
