Smarter listenerIP-to-relayIP default relationship must be developed #94

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
The TURN server works just fine when used on a single-home system with default 
IP settings, or when used on multi-home systems with explicitly defined 
listener IP(s) and relay IP(s). But what about the case when the TURN server is 
running on a multi-home system with default settings (no listener and relay IPs 
are explicitly defined) ? Currently it will not work well - all IP addresses 
will be used for the relay endpoints, and as the result some relay endpoints 
will not be reachable from some networks.

The default policy must be "use the same IP for the relay IP address as the 
local listener IP address for the connection is". This policy will work 
perfectly for public TURN servers. This default policy will NOT work for 
"gateway"-type private and semi-private TURN servers with multiple network 
interfaces, but those TURN servers must be set "manually" and "explicitly" with 
the listener and relay IP addresses, anyway. For those "private" TURN servers 
nothing will change - they still have to be set explicitly and they cannot use 
any default policy anyway (because the TURN server cannot determine the 
administrator intentions in complex network topology and it has to be told what 
to do).
