Setting up a TURN or STUN server
================================
Ring can be configured to use TURN or STUN servers (`RFC5766 <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5766>`_) to establish a connection between two peers.
In this guide, we will setup a `coturn <https://github.com/coturn/coturn>`_ server. There are other TURN/STUN server implementations available under a free license. See `TurnServer <http://turnserver.sourceforge.net/>`_ and `Restund <http://www.creytiv.com/restund.html>`_.
1. Installing
#############
COTURN is available in most Linux distributions. On Debian, install it with the following command:
.. code-block:: bash
apt-get install coturn
2. Configuring
##############
Here is a basic ``turnserver.conf`` file:
.. code-block:: none
listening-port=10000
listening-ip=0.0.0.0
min-port=10000
max-port=30000
lt-cred-mech
realm=sfl
no-stun
3. Creating users on your TURN server
#####################################
To create users on your TURN server, use the ``turnadmin`` binary.
.. code-block:: bash
turnadmin -a -u bob -p secretpassword -r sfl
4. Launching the TURN server
############################
.. code-block:: bash
turnserver -c turnserver.conf
5. Configuring Ring to authenticate to the TURN server
######################################################
You may configure Ring to use your TURN server from the advanced tab your account settings:
============== ============================ ======================
Field Value Example
============== ============================ ======================
**server url** host and port of your server 0.0.0.0:10000
**username** username bob
**password** password secretpassword
**realm** realm sfl
============== ============================ ======================
