The “testRelay” demo application - as written - receives UDP packets (from a multicast stream), and resends each UDP payload  (i.e., the contents of each UDP packet) inside another UDP packet to a separate destination.

(Therefore, if the input source happens to be a RTP/UDP stream, then the RTP header (which is part of the UDP payload) will be included in each packet that’s sent to the destination, and thus the outgoing packets will also be RTP/UDP packets.)
