Mixed Operation

In Figure [*] below, the gray boxes represent network hosts. The green boxes represent the SteganRTP application. The telephone icons represent the RTP endpoint applications, and the black arrows represent the two distinct RTP streams, one flowing in either direction. In this scenario, the SteganRTP application on the left of the diagram, SteganRTP A, is running on an intermediary host along the route from its nearer RTP endpoint, Endpoint A, to its remote RTP endpoint, Endpoint B. The SteganRTP application on the right of the diagram, SteganRTP B, is running on the same host as its nearer RTP endpoint, Endpoint B.

Figure: SteganRTP running locally on one endpoint host and as an active man-in-the-middle on the other.
