Is it only TURN server?

[Sojharo Mangi]

Hello,

First of all, sorry for such basic question. I am little confused. Is it only TURN server? and not STUN server? Can't we implement our own STUN server rather using one provided by Google?

This is both a STUN and a TURN server.

Hello Oleg,

Thanks for your kind reply. I have one more question.

I am working on a webrtc application and have to implement following TURN server.

https://code.google.com/p/rfc5766-turn-server/

I am following this tutorial.

http://www.dialogic.com/den/developer_forums/f/71/t/10238.aspx

and it says to reference the TURN server as follows, in javascript code where RTCPeerConnection is created.

var pc_config = {"iceServers": [{"url": "stun:stun.l.google.com:19302"},            {"url":"turn:my_username@<turn_server_ip_address>", "credential":"my_password"}]};
        pc_new = new webkitRTCPeerConnection(pc_config);

I am little confused, why are we referencing to Google's public STUN server. I thought RFC5766 TURN server has STUN inside it.

Sorry for such naive question. I am new to WebRTC.

Thanks.

That was a turn only example. You can use this server as a stun server.

Will this RFC5766 server also function as STUN server when TURN is not needed and only STUN is needed? Or we need to do some modification with this?

Yes, see the stun-only option
