  • SRC - the source IP address and port.

  • LEN - the length of the payload (in bytes).

  • PT - the payload type number.

  • SSRC - the source indentifier unique to this session.

  • SEQ - the packet's contiguous sequence number.

  • TIME - the packet's timestamp (based on payload clock rate).
