Output package from openfire server

Does anyone knows if the package output from the openfire server is encrypted or encoded? I am writing a proxy that listening (on port 5269) for incoming data from remote openfire server and forward the data to the local openfire server (listening on port 5555) where my proxy is running. I wanted to look at the data before forwarding to the local server, but the data since to be encrypted or encoded. Any help is greatly appreciated.

thanks,
