Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] RTP packets not captured..
Thanks for the info. I moved all my connections to a
ethernet hub and I did have similar results. I know I
am capturing the correct IP @ and port # ( I do this
based on SDP traces). I also tried capturing directly
on the SIP phone also using ethereal. Same results.
However after doing few more experiments - it looks
like I am able to capture first 4 packets (G.711 or
G.729), but after that I do not see any RTP packets.
If I make another call immediately, I do not see RTP
information. If I wait for a while (for eaxmple after
60 minutes etc..) and call back again, I see 4 more
RTP packets. I know it does not sound rational, but
that's what I am seeing.
