I'm having a hard time getting client side to connect to WebRTC when our firewall is enabled.  I know it works properly when I disable the firewall I can not seem to find the right port triggering to enable to get this work properly.  Any suggestions or ideas for firewall settings on client side?

So these ports are to be configured on the client side as well in addition to sever side?

I found this, https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/discuss-webrtc/PTPDF4D8m2A/WS8lZu8bMaUJ, discussion on the webrtc boards. It's from 2013, but I think the information is still relevant.

Unless you set up and use a TURN server your client needs to have all the UDP ports > 1023 open. The browser requests a (somewhat) random port from the OS of the roughly 64,000 possibilities.
