Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for detecting encrypted Internet Protocol packet streams. The type of data within an encrypted stream of packets is inferred using an observable parameter. The observable parameter is observable despite encryption obscuring the contents of the encrypted stream of packets. A timer is established that maintains settings despite changes in the type of inferred data.
