...and with reading the source code it looks even more like what Martin
said:
tap-rtp-common.c
(http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/viewvc/trunk-1.2/tap-rtp-common.c?view=mar
kup):
/* Calculate the BW in Kbps adding the IP+UDP header to the RTP
-> 20bytes(IP)+8bytes(UDP) = 28bytes */
statinfo->bw_history[statinfo->bw_index].bytes =
rtpinfo->info_data_len + 28;
statinfo->bw_history[statinfo->bw_index].time = current_time;
/* Check if there are more than 1sec in the history buffer to
calculate BW in bps. If so, remove those for the calculation */
while
((statinfo->bw_history[statinfo->bw_start_index].time+1000/* ms
*/)<current_time){
statinfo->total_bytes -=
statinfo->bw_history[statinfo->bw_start_index].bytes;
statinfo->bw_start_index++;
if (statinfo->bw_start_index == BUFF_BW)
statinfo->bw_start_index=0;
};
statinfo->total_bytes += rtpinfo->info_data_len + 28;
statinfo->bandwidth = (double)(statinfo->total_bytes*8)/1000;
statinfo->bw_index++;
if (statinfo->bw_index == BUFF_BW) statinfo->bw_index = 0;

Subject: Re: [Wireshark-users] IP BW computation in RTP stream
analysis
Without reading the source code, it looks to me to be pretty
much a sum of the size (in kilobits) of the previous 1 seconds worth of
RTP packets in that direction on that stream. (I *think* it is just the
IP size (header + payload) but not the layer 2 frame. So effective it
shows a moving average bit rate over a one second window. You can tell
it is done this way as see the IP BW "ramp up" at the beginning of each
session. (Of course you should read the code to confirm this exactly).

Hello,
Can anyone tell me what formulae/equations are used to
compute the the IP BW (in kbps) for Wireshark RTP stream analysis?
Thanks,
Josephine
