Real-time protocol (RTP) flow analysis using network processor

摘要

An apparatus including a network processor and a host system for monitoring packet communications on a packet network. The network processor captures all packets on a link of the network in real-time, to thereby capture communications transmitted via packet on the link. Each communication has at least one corresponding packet media stream. The host system communicates with the network processor to detect the packet media streams from the captured packets and to analyze the detected packet media streams.
