I don't understand what that means in detail. If Classic FM plays for
two hours, is there one outgoing request to start it and then two hours
of incoming traffic in response with no further outgoing traffic for the
entire two hours? Or is there some periodic outgoing traffic which keeps
the fetch going? The difference is crucial to understanding what my
router's firewall might be doing.
