RTCIceCandidateType

The WebRTC API's RTCIceCandidateType enumerated type provides a set of DOMString values representing the types of ICE candidate that can arrive. These strings are taken directly from the candidate a-line in SDP.

Values

These candidate types are listed in order of priority; the higher in the list they are, the more efficient they are.

"host"

The candidate is a host candidate, whose IP address as specified in the RTCIceCandidate.ip property is in fact the true address of the remote peer.

"srflx"

The candidate is a server reflexive candidate; the ip indicates an intermediary address assigned by the STUN server to represent the candidate's peer anonymously.

"prflx"

The candidate is a peer reflexive candidate; the ip is an intermediary address assigned by the STUN server to represent the candidate's peer anonymously.

"relay"

The candidate is a relay candidate, obtained from a TURN server. The relay candidate's IP address is an address the TURN server uses to forward the media between the two peers.

Usage notes

The RTCIceCandidateType enumeration is used by the type property of RTCIceCandidate objects.
