The IP stream is expected
In correct order and without duplication: Amethyst III
does not perform reordering neither deletion of
duplicated datagram (even when RTP layer is
present).
Unfragmented: fragmented packets are not
processed (regarding TS over IP).
Note that Amethyst III changes the output RTP sequence
number if the delay compensation is activated to avoid
gaps in sequence number due to a switch operation.
