Not necessarily. Actually, the usual way is to use just 1 RTPSession
for both transmission and reception. Each RTPSession has a particular
space of SSRC identifiers.

The difference between them is that RTPSession uses different sockets
for transmission and reception, while SymmetricRTPSession uses the
same socket for both receiving and transmitting packets (which is
particularly useful against NATs and friends).

So with one RTPSession/SymmetricRTPSession you can implement a
participant that sends and receives voice packets.

HTH.
