Interesting. For the record, the MultiTech MVP-130 comes with a default setting
of 60ms packets on all of its supported codecs. I changed the packet sizes to
20ms because I had never heard of anyone using such large sample sizes.

I have a question regarding the Asterisk Packet Time for SIP Calls.
It is hardcoded at 20ms but when I do an RTP Analysis on a stream
it is clear that these packets are not spaced out at 20ms.  In
general you see something like:

Packet 50 - Delay 50ms
Packet 51 - Delay 5ms
Packet 52 - Delay 5ms
Packet 53 - Delay 50ms
Packet 54 - Delay 5ms
Packet 55 - Delay 5ms

Is there anyway to space them out evenly at 20ms??


The 20 ms is not the inter-packet timing, its the relative content of
what's within the packet. In other words, the packet contains 20ms of
encoded voice.

If the inter-packet times (delays) are large, as they would seem to
be in your example, then something else is not right. Possibly a
half-duplex ethernet connection, something else running on the
server, router buffers, etc.

On a typical * --> C7960 local call, I generally see from 1ms to 20ms
inter-packet delays. Seldom (if ever) anything above 20ms.


Thanks for your Input Rich. I went ahead and tested this on our
production servers and sure enough the inter-packet times are 20ms. There must be something happening with our LAB Asterisk. It could be
the CBQ traffic shaping software we have running on it. I will fiddle
around with it to see if it changes anything.


Thanks!

Ok...after some more testing, the traffic shaping software was not the
culprit. It turns out that if the UA is configured for 60ms of voice,
then Asterisk will show this strange behaviour. If we set the UA for
20ms, then all works well.


Cool!

How did it get set to 60ms?


The GS Phone, ATA186, and SPA2000 all have a parameter that lets you set the transmit packet size to 60ms (or multiple other values). Asterisk will receive 60ms and transmit 20ms times 3 packets, andit works quite well. In any case our SPA2000 problem was unrelated to the packet time.
