The delivery of multimedia content is a facet of Internet traffic that
is rapidly growing in importance. The new generation of World Wide Web
sites are relying heavily on extensive multimedia content such as
graphics, sound, music and video to attract and retain visitors. While
there have been extensive studies on the growth and effects of Hyper
Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) traffic used on the Web, little or no
work has been performed in analyzing streaming multimedia traffic. We
present the results of a brief study to examine the traffic emanating
from a popular Internet audio service using the RealAudio program. We
found protocol distributions that show a bias towards non-TCP friendly
protocols. In addition, we observed consistencies in audio traffic
packet sizes and data rate patterns may be useful as a tool for
identifying audio data flows. Our results show that audio flows
