The software simply captures packets over the line and shows you the time difference between them. It is important to note that there is a delay or jitter, but we will not see where it is coming from.
Delay is the time that it takes a packet to get from one end of the network to the other. It is usually referred to as RTT. Delay can be measured with the simple ping or Graphical Ping tools. Delay is measured in seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and so on.
Jitter in IP networks measures the variations in delay. For example, if we have an average delay of 100 ms, and it varies between 80 milliseconds and 120 milliseconds, the jitter is 20 percent.
